"Mom, did you feel the earthquake today? The base was attacked by a lord-level monster. It took us seven Doomslayers to barely repel it." Ru
"One of them is the father of three children. It was me who returned his belongings to the base. Mom, at that moment I seemed to see my shadow in those crying children. They all blamed me. If I could be stronger A little bit...if I could...Mom, Ling is so sad and I blame myself so much..."
"Ling, this is not your fault. Both you and they are the heroes of the base. I believe those children will inherit the legacy of their heroic father and become warriors who protect the base like their father in the future."
"No...you don't understand, you don't understand..."
...
...
"Mom, the base has been losing more and more personnel recently. Three more evildoers have left today, including Uncle Kuisang, the guard captain who used to be by my father's side. It's useless no matter what I try to do to keep him. They all say that Lord ZhuoE has left. It has set its sights on our base and will come back sooner or later. Is this true? What should I do? Mom, Ling... I'm so confused..."
"Ling, considering the current situation, mother suggests that you also leave the Graycastle base. Your talent is very good, but it has not yet grown up. You should not be buried here." Ru
"Mom, you...how can you say such things? The Graycastle base was built bit by bit from the gathering place by you and your father. It was your hard work, mother. You, how could you!"
"I'm sorry for what I said to make you angry, but I'm sorry Ling. If you continue to stay here, you will only lose everything. So after mom calculated the gains and losses, this is the best plan now. Compared to the base, you are mom's hard work. , Mom hopes you can survive."
"You... no, you are not a mother. Mom would never say such things. You... you don't understand anything at all..."
...
...
"Haha, dad is gone too, taking his lover and property with him. He abandoned our base. Do you think I want to take him back? No... Such a betrayer, he deserves to die! It's all because of him, It was he who killed mother! If mother was still alive, everything, everything would be..."
"Ling, your mood is very unstable. Mom suggests that you take a rest first. You have been too tired recently, and your tense nerves have put a huge load on your spirit. Mom is very worried about your physical condition. If you continue like this ..." Ru
"Shut up! Stop imitating mom. You make me feel sick. Mom won't do this. Mom will support me. She will support me. Yes... I'm going to kill him, kill that bastard .”
...
...
"Mom, look, I brought dad back, even though it's only half of him, but in this way, our family is reunited. Mom, praise Ling, praise me like you did when I was a child, like you did before. ...Come on and praise me!
"
"Mom, why don't you speak? Speak, speak to me!"
"Ling, you can't go on like this. Mom asks you to stop using your evil power immediately. Your mind has been seriously affected by the evil. Now you are on the verge of going berserk. Mom asks you to listen to your mother's words. , Mom doesn’t want to lose you.”
"How could it be? Mom, I feel very good. My whole body is full of strength. I want to become stronger, become stronger, so that I can protect the Graycastle base and protect the memories of my mother and me...become stronger. ..Yes, continue to become stronger..." Ru
...
...
"Mom, I don't know why. There are fewer and fewer people in the base. I can't see many people when I walk on the street. I finally saw a few. When I went up to say hello to them, they all turned to me. With a fearful expression, he ran away like a monster screaming at me, Mom, why do you think this is happening? Are they all crazy?"
"So I chased after them and killed them all. They must have gone berserk, that's why they were hallucinating. Are you right, Mom, how could I be a monster?"
"Ling, can you stay at home with your mother from now on? Mom doesn't want you to go out."
"Hey, it's so strange, Mom. Didn't you always want me to leave the base before? Have you finally figured it out now? But no, Mom, Ling is very busy. Ling has to inspect the base every day, and Ling has to protect everyone. I can't do it all the time. Stay with mom."
...ru
...
"Mom, it's really strange. Everyone in the base is locked up. Why can't Ling find anyone? It's not going to work like this. So, mom, do you know that Ling went out to the base today and found a few people around him? Assembly point."
"Ling originally wanted them to come and live in our base with good intentions, but they directly attacked Ling. Mom, Ling was so angry, so Ling captured them all. This way there will be more people in the base. It's great. ,Mother..."
"But why didn't they say anything and just lay on the ground? Mom, do you think they are sleepy?"
"Ling..."
...
...ru
"It's really annoying, mom. Ling has already searched several nearby gathering places, but there are still not enough people, far from enough. Ling needs to find more people, more people to fill up the Graycastle base. This way the base can be lively.”
"But don't worry, Mom, Ling already has a clue. The people captured today told Ling that there is a new super large gathering place in the north. They have annexed several gathering places. Now there are thousands of people, haha ..."
】
"And mom, do you know, their name seems to be...Grey Castle Gathering Ground, mom, look, even the name is so similar to our Graycastle base, Ling thinks they will definitely be willing to come to us, Ling wants to find it They, but I heard that their leader seems to be very powerful, Ling is a little worried, so mom...can you share your strength with Ling?"
Ling's five eyes were bloodshot, and they all looked at the maid with longing eyes, her red eyes filled with madness.
Mucus had begun to drip down from the huge mouthpart at the corner of her mouth.
The fleshy wings on his back were flapping as if urging him to do so.
But just as Ling used her long-decomposed mutated claws to grab at the maid, she paused on the way. Among the five blood-red eyes, the two pairs belonging to humans regained some clarity, as if they were struggling. What. Ru
Unfortunately, Zhuo E's madness soon took over Ling again. After going berserk and becoming a "Zhuo Zombie", Ling was very sensitive to Zhuo E. She had long sensed that her mechanical mother had also become a "Zhuo E" under her influence. The Transformer has a lot of turmoil in her body. In her eyes, just like those people she captured from other places, they are excellent nutrients and a source of improvement for her strength.
However, it is different from those who resist.
Ling's claws penetrated the maid easily, and the maid didn't resist at all, just like a mother preparing the last dinner for her daughter.
Soon the maid's mechanical body was torn into pieces. Ling greedily absorbed the evil in the maid's body. She was originally a monster body that was completely unrecognizable and could not see the human form. Now it has become taller and more terrifying, with more features on its face. It has four eyes, and two more pairs of fleshy wings grow out of the fleshy wings on its back, wrapped in mucus.
After the evolution was completed, Ling seemed to have finally regained her human sanity from the crazy eating. She looked at the maid who was almost useless under her claws and was completely paralyzed. She took several steps back and wanted to say something. , but what came out of the mouth...the mouthparts full of sharp teeth was just a whimpering sound like a monster's roar.
No, it should be said that Ling has been unable to make human voices since very early on. Those conversations are just the maid's calculation and analysis, thereby converting the roar into human sentences.
Now that the maid is gone, no one can understand the monster Ling anymore. When no one can understand the monster anymore, she has completely become a monster. Ru
The memory copy of zero in the consciousness cube ends here.
Afterwards, Liao Ji knew everything without looking at the memory fragments.
Zero was the second one among "them" to join. It can be seen from the memory fragments of Sshutia that it was very early in time.
At that time, the Ashin Gathering Area had just returned from its great victory, and had annexed many surrounding small gathering places, becoming the only super large gathering place at that time.
Perhaps it was precisely because of his fame that the population increased, which attracted the attack of the monster Ling.
Yes.
The little girl Ling Liao Ji didn’t know her, but the monster “Ling” Liao Ji did. Ru
This was an elite boss at that time, and it took Liao Ji a lot of effort to successfully conquer it.
Later, I followed the clues of the Graycastle base on the monster, and when I looked for it, I found that the base had long been in ruins and empty.
In the garbage dump of the abandoned base, I was wondering if I could scavenge for treasures. I discovered this damaged housekeeping robot that was torn to pieces by Ling, and realized its talent potential, so I immediately used the "contract" to successfully save it. After the system was restarted, there was a subsequent...zero.
At this point, Liao Ji finally connected his memory and understood everything.
And when he came to the end of the Rubik's Cube of Consciousness, at the end, the phantom of a little girl appeared in front of Liao Ji.
That was Ling when she was young at first.
When Liao Ji thought it was just some memory fragment, what he didn't expect was that this time the phantom of the little girl actually noticed him. Ru
"Big brother, you are finally here! Ling, who has been waiting for you for a long time, can finally breathe a sigh of relief!"
Liao Ji looked at the little girl who was talking directly to him, slightly surprised and puzzled.
The current Ling is obviously no longer a "memory", but more like an independent individual hiding in the Rubik's Cube of consciousness with her own consciousness, and what she says is also very strange.
"Wait for me... long?"
"Yes, yes, that pink-haired elder sister told me that one day, a handsome elder brother will come in. After Ling helps the elder brother, the elder brother will also grant one of Ling's wishes! Ling is dancing and looking forward to it Hope!"
The pink haired...big sister?
The figure of a certain succubus suddenly appeared in Liao Ji's mind. Ru
Is there also a shadow of Lena here...
No.
Liao Ji recalled his experience in the Holy Kingdom, his journey to the Dragon Kingdom, and now the Machinery Alliance. He shouldn't be surprised. It should be said...
Really?
Since the Tang Dynasty, I should have thought that being able to resurrect old memories and turn them into consciousness is such a powerful ability that only the "superpower system" can achieve.
Seeing that Liao Ji didn't speak for a long time, Ling became a little nervous. She clenched her fists and asked in a very anxious tone: "Brother, you can't cheat! Because Ling's wish is very important, very important, very, very important! It’s what Ling wants to achieve no matter what!”
Liao Ji squatted down, stroked the little girl's head, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, didn't your pink-haired sister tell you, brother, I am the best to children, tell me, what is Ling's wish? "Ru
Seeing that Liao Ji finally took care of herself, the little girl breathed a sigh of relief. Then she showed a sad expression, lowered her head, and whispered to Liao Ji:
"Big brother, Ling, Ling once did something that was very sorry for my mother. Ling regrets it very much..."
"But now Ling can't apologize to her mother in person, so Ling hopes that her eldest brother can... help Ling take care of her mother!"
"Ling hopes that mother can be happy. Big brother, can you... promise Ling?"
"Ling begged to Big Brother very, very, very seriously."
The little girl grabbed Liao Ji's lapel, as if she wouldn't let go if Liao Ji didn't agree. Although her young eyes were full of perseverance, after all, as she said, this was the most important thing to her.
"Okay, brother, I promise you." Ru
"Brother will definitely help you take good care of your mother."
"Really, really! Thank you, big brother! The pink-haired big sister really didn't lie, so Zi Ling can rest assured! Ling said excitedly and happily!"
As the little girl talked, tears appeared in her eyes, shining in the crystal tears, it seemed like she missed her mother, like the one who was always by her side in the lonely nights when she lost her mother, The housekeeping robot that plays her "mother" is like the potato soup that the maid made for her mother, like the mother who became her only spiritual support at that time...
Liao Ji didn't say anything, he just held the sobbing little girl in his arms.
"Big brother, pink-haired...sister...sister said that our world has...no trouble anymore...everyone is very happy...living very happily...this is true." Is it..."
"it is true."
"It's so... great... Ling is so happy... It's great... Ling... Ling also wants to live in this era... Ling also wants to be happy with her parents... ..It’s so good…It’s so good…” Ru
"But it doesn't matter. Although Ling can't help it, as long as mom can... mom can, thank you big brother, thank you for telling me this..."
"Ling can't cry anymore, Ling... you have to be strong. Big brother helped Ling, but Ling hasn't helped big brother yet. This is the agreement between me and my pink-haired sister. Ling must fulfill it well, Ling said firmly!"
The girl wiped her tears with her fleshy little hands and left Liao Ji's arms with strength and initiative. Afterwards, Ling didn't need Liao Ji to do anything. After opening her arms, Ling Ji found the "patch" that Lena had given him in Liao Ji's backpack. "The capsule reappeared.
"Well, goodbye, big brother."
"Say hello to mom for me."
After Ling waved to Liao Ji, the little girl's phantom quickly dissipated and turned into a rain of light. After these raindrops landed on the capsule in Liao Ji's hand, the capsule began to change rapidly, revealing its true appearance.
It was a dark green seed with majestic vitality. Ru
The item notes in Liao Ji's field of vision have also changed from the original [patch] to...
[Seed of World Tree]
When he was at Kyle Technology, Liao Ji once asked the Magic City scholar Ains about the knowledge of elves. Among them, Professor Ains mentioned the World Tree.
For elves, the World Tree has the magical ability to connect souls. It is said that each leaf of the World Tree is the soul of an elf, and its branches and veins are sacred soul links.
And here...
What this World Tree Seed wants to connect is no longer the soul, but the thousands of servitors in the Rubik's Cube of Consciousness.
