TROTLG Chapter 316

 

Zhou Ping found that, in recent days, he often forgot many things.

He would forget the things he had placed in his hand or the documents that he had written down in the next second.

Can a brain power user who relies on thinking have brain degeneration?

Zhou Ping even gradually developed the habit of carrying a memo. However, even if he often forgot some trivial things, he would never forget the source code of the entire kingdom.

Zhou Ping’s forgetfulness became increasingly prominent, often forgetting what he was going to say in the middle of his speech.

The top brass expressed their fears and anxiety over Zhou Ping’s current problems to the God-Emperor.

Should Zhou Ping forget the source code one day, then they would be in danger of extinction.

The source code could no longer be Zhou Ping’s secret alone.

But Zhou Ping did not let up, and no one could ask for the source code.

After more than a month of observation, the God-Emperor was finally convinced that Song Qian had indeed poisoned Zhou Ping. Zhou Ping’s memory was not having issues; rather, Song Qian was manipulating him to perform some other actions unconsciously.

Song Qian could seize control of Zhou Ping at any time and anywhere, leaving him helpless and unaware.

The God-Emperor knew Zhou Ping very well. He was an S-ranked brain power that was extremely intelligent and self-assured. He had to make sure that Zhou Ping was completely and totally under Song Qian’s control or he would tell them the wrong source code information.

An artificial human who even dared to calculate angels and gods; what couldn’t he dare to calculate?

More than a month later, after being convinced that Zhou Ping was being controlled, the God-Emperor summoned Zhou Ping and Bai Lixin.

Zhou Ping and Bai Lixin followed the personal guards to the 300th floor and found Eve and Song Qian already waiting there. The two were calm and affectionate.

Zhou Ping had been forgetting things more and more lately, and he was feeling restless. After a few minutes of self-composure, he half kneeled in front of the God-Emperor.

Unexpectedly, the God-Emperor smiled gently and walked down the steps. He leaned into Zhou Ping’s ear and said a word in a compelling voice. Zhou Ping’s face changed, and he immediately went into a trance.

The God-Emperor said, “Professor Zhou, tell me what the source code is.”

Zhou Ping knew deep down in his heart that he should never tell the God-Emperor the source code, but in his trance, he heard himself say a string of numbers.

Zhou Ping was greatly shocked, but he was still spitting out the string of numbers in a voice that only two people could hear.

After Zhou Ping finished a moment later, the God-Emperor turned his head to look at Song Qian with a smile and said, “Well done.”

After praising Song Qian, the God-Emperor turned to look at Bai Lixin. He suddenly tilted his head and laughed in excitement, “My child, you finally came back.”

“I still remember the first time I saw you. You showed up at the banquet and I had you give Dijia a tour. You stole Eros’ body and easily suppressed his soul. I often wondered where this little thing came from that had such power. Later, I killed Dijia as I wished, but you disappeared in thin air with my dagger. I thought that since you came through Eros’ body the first time, you would surely come the second time. So I put my plan into action. I sealed Eros away and waited for the day you would appear. ”

Bai Lixin looked at the God-Emperor in shock. He was about to stand up but found that his body was stiff and he couldn’t move a muscle.

Bai Lixin looked at the dazed Zhou Ping and opened his mouth to say something, but eventually closed it again.

“The curse is unpleasant, right? Even though I absorbed energy from each generation of the lord gods, my body ultimately could not support the effects of age. I needed a new body that was more healthy and perfect. ” The God-Emperor moved in front of Bai Lixin and said, “This is the new body. This body was born thanks to your help, my child. I needed to take back the energy of the sub gods to rebuild my body. But as the lord god of the countless worlds, I couldn’t absorb them without a justifiable reason. My soul needed a mother body, and that was where you came in. You went to the Sky City, rescued the god of love and brought the angels down. You made this body ripe for the taking, and let me escape from death to rebirth. ”

Bai Lixin gritted his teeth and said, “You tricked me.”

“It’s not much of a trick. I can only say that it is natural. But good boy, since you are here, where did Dijia go? ” The God-Emperor slowly approached Bai Lixin. He used his hand to pinch up Bai Lixin’s chin to look up at him and said, “It’s really hard to get through the Iron tower, but you got through effortlessly. So please tell me, where is Dijia? ”

Bai Lixin coldly snorted, “Dijia is naturally where he should be; you don’t need to know.”

The God-Emperor laughed and let go of Bai Lixin to straighten his clothes. “Forget it. I don’t have the same knowledge as you but ou are now in my hands. Can’t I pry your mouth open? Kneel there and think clearly. Your time is almost up. I’m going to input the source code. You two keep an eye on him. ”

Song Qian and Eve hurriedly answered, not daring to have a hint of negligence.

The God-Emperor came to the 298th floor. He opened layer after layer of protective net and shielding wall and walked for about ten minutes before entering the central control room.

This would be considered his first time entering the central control room since it was built. For whatever security reasons, he was isolated outside the control room.

A central control room belonging only to Zhou Ping? Heh, he doesn’t know the difference between heaven and earth.

The central control room was a circular space with a massive blue energy mass suspended in the middle. The energy body changed color with the movement of energy. In front of the energy mass was an operation console that had a long keyboard. In front of the keyboard was a virtual, translucent screen.

The screen displayed a countdown and it showed that there were thirty minutes left. Below the countdown was a cursor that kept flashing.

This cursor is where the source code needs to be entered. Once it was entered correctly, the countdown would be cancelled, the central control system would continue to work, and the operating system would operate all the systems in the entire kingdom.

Once the input is wrong, the screen will re-enter a ten-minute countdown. There were three chances to input the source code in ten minutes. If entered correctly, the countdown would be cancelled and the stage would return to normal. If the wrong code was entered, the whole system would enter into self-destruction and the whole kingdom would explode.

The God-Emperor went to the console and entered the string of source code that Zhou Ping had just recited onto the screen.

He heard a “ding” from the large system, and the translucent screen changed the display and entered the control interface.

The handsome blond youth smiled and stroked his chin. He now had the source code and all that remained was Zhou Ping’s scientific research results. He knew that Zhou Ping had been researching genetic modification over the years, and this research was kept secret from him.

The more you don’t let him know, the more he wants to know.

The young man smiled gently and pressed a few keys on the screen.

The energy shield that had been transformed into a blue sky and white clouds was gradually withdrawn from the sky of the kingdom. Without warning, the energy field opened up…

Useless wastes, it’s time for you to disappear.

He had repeatedly proposed opening the energy field and destroying the artificials without power, but Zhou Ping would firmly protest. He could only accept the existence of those wastes. Now that Zhou Ping’s source code is in his hands, these worthless artificials could disappear.

With the opening of the energy field, the God-Emperor felt like a stone was removed from his heart.

He turned around and slowly walked towards the door, intending to push it open and leave. However, just as his hand was about to touch the metal door, a sudden and violent pressure hit him, squeezing his body to the ground. He instinctively crouched down to brace himself to the ground in order not to fall.

The God emperor turned to look at the blue energy mass in surprise. He found that the original clockwise rotation of the energy mass was wildly moving counterclockwise. The gravity field in the entire space had changed dramatically, and countless amounts of energy were flowing out and squeezing him.

The display screen and operating console not far away had retracted into the metal platform at some point. Only he and the energy field were left in the huge space.

The God-Emperor stood up and accumulated power in his hands and tried to knock down the energy field.

But just as he gathered the energy in his hand, he found that his power was being sucked out at a terrifying rate.

It gave him the very same feeling as the God-killing formation that Bai Lixin had trapped him in that day!

The blue mass of energy slowly changed, and the God Emperor stared in disbelief. He was watching this mass of blue energy slowly stretch into a blue formation before flying directly to his head. Even after several years, he still remembered that formation. This was the God-killing formation!

When and who set up the God-killing formation here?

……

Feeling the high tower slightly tremble several times, Bai Lixin’s expression relaxed and he slowly stood up.

He rubbed his somewhat stiff hands and assisted Zhou Ping beside him to stand up as well.

Zhou Ping’s expression had returned from a trance to normal. The two men looked at Song Qian in unison. The three of them smiled at each other and gave each other a high five.

Eve beside Song Qian had a somewhat dull expression, while in Bai Lixin’s view, the black fog around Eve’s neck had dispersed and the skin of the black snake hidden inside glowed golden. Song Qian had poisoned it.

Not long after the opening of the energy field, many zombies emerged from the depths of the ground, and the person leading the group was none other than Zhou An, who should have been dead.

Zhou An propped up countless vines from the ground and wrapped them around the artificials without power while opening a passage to the central tower. Countless zombies swarmed in, and it didn’t take long before they stormed into the tower.
