It was finally over. Jiang Chen returned to the power armor, took out two brick-sized thermite from the spare box, and returned to the hall.
He threw the thermite on the running supercomputer and pressed the detonator in his hand.
The scorching sparks instantly melted the steel skeleton, and the entire crystallization of technology melted in the dazzling flames. The jumping floating point numbers disappeared, symbolizing the collapse of another world.
Jiang Chen quietly lit a cigarette and silently enjoyed the not-so-bright fireworks.
In the flames, he saw Yao Tingting, Zhao Peng, his classmates, and Jon …
The first thing to disappear was the fake memory of 16 years. He couldn't remember who his "nominal parents" were in the virtual world, and who his childhood friends were …
Perhaps after some time, even the face in the five-day loop would be covered by a layer of white mist.
But this was good, at least he didn't have to worry about the fake existence.
Although the hard drive that stored artificial intelligence "life" and game data was destroyed, the processor and other computing devices were still preserved and thrown into the storage dimension. In the future, when he created a virtual reality MMORPG, he could use that.
He threw away the cigarette butt and walked to the petri dish filled with green liquid.
"Mhmm, how do I open it?"
He scratched his head and sighed. Then he reached out his finger and pressed all the buttons he could.
"Fu * k, it really worked?"
The green liquid began to slowly descend, and the tubes inserted on the girl's body began to retract. As the water level decreased, the girl slowly sat on the ground like a duck, leaning against the wall behind her.
Silver hair, white skin, slender and delicate body, as if it was strictly "designed" according to the golden ratio. Perhaps because of the excessive pursuit of artistic perfection in the design of the appearance, it made her look unreal and dreamy.
Just like the elves in the magical world? But her ears were not pointy.
"Mhmm … Should I prepare some clothes for her?" Jiang Chen thought about it, opened the storage dimension, and took out another protective suit. Although it was a bit big, it should be fine.
As to why he was so calm, it was naturally because there was nothing to look at with her thin body. Even if her looks were frighteningly high, he had seen his fair share of beauties.
Mhmm, in terms of body shape, it was somewhere between Yao Yao and Ayesha.
"Ugh!"
The girl opened her eyes without warning and vomited violently.
Green liquid spurted out from his mouth and nose and splashed onto Jiang Chen's shoes. He took a step back in fear.
"Cough cough, blergh —!" The young lady forcefully patted her chest without a care for her image, and then with some difficulty, she vomited out the culture fluid in her esophagus and respiratory tract.
Hmm … It doesn't seem to be food? In that case, it shouldn't be that disgusting.
Jiang Chen glanced at the green liquid on the tip of his shoe and gently shook it off. However, the liquid seemed to be a little sticky, and he didn't know what it was made of.
The girl woke up. She squinted her eyes, which had not opened for a long time, and slowly adapted to the surrounding light.
But when she saw Jiang Chen, she suddenly shrank back like a frightened rabbit.
Somehow, he felt that his sitting posture was even worse … There were no bushes?
"M-man?!"
"Mhmm? That's right, why don't you put this on first before we talk? "Jiang Chen shrugged and handed over the chemical protective suit in his hand.
"Low life form." The girl cursed as she extended her hand with a disgusted expression, but she realized that the man took back the suit.
"What, what are you doing?" She sensed the unfriendliness on his face and shrank back in fear.
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes and weighed the suit in his left hand.
"What did you call me?"
"Low life form! Am I wrong? "Although the girl was scared, she stubbornly bared her fangs and stared back. But her hands seemed to be too busy. If she could cover the top, she would have to reveal the bottom …
"Oh? Is this how you treat the person who freed you from the cage? "Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and laughed.
The artificial intelligence was destroyed, and the bacteria "petri dish" was destroyed. The battle above should be over. Since he had all the time, he suddenly wanted to teach this bad-tempered girl a lesson.
[Low life form? Does that count as cursing me?]
"Shouldn't I?" The girl raised her head and stared at Jiang Chen fiercely. "I, I told you the clue, and you let me out. This is a normal transaction."
[Although your temper is stubborn and your tone is firm, why are your shoulders shaking?]
A mischievous smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face.
"Oh? Think carefully, did we make a deal? "
"Of course-!" But just as the aggressive words left her mouth, the girl's voice was stuck, and her expression froze.
"Isn't, isn't it obvious? Do I need to explain?" Her tone clearly weakened.
She suddenly came to a realization. It seemed that there really wasn't any agreement.
"Oh? Don't you know the rules on the wasteland? "Jiang Chen smiled.
"Rules?" The girl was stunned.
"If I save you, then based on the rules, you are my slave." A devilish smirk appeared on his face.
He learned this smirk from Sun Jiao, although he couldn't replicate her mischievous tone.
As for the rules? That was bullsh * t. But to be saved in the apocalypse, it was no different from being a captive.
"Captive, captive?" The girl's face instantly turned pale.
"That's right, captive."
"What, what do you want to do to me?" The girl's lips trembled slightly. Her legs subconsciously moved backward, and her back was already pressed against the cold wall.
"Me? Of course, I will do whatever I want. For example … "The devilish smile on Jiang Chen's face became brighter and brighter.
[So interesting!] He suddenly realized that his S attribute was about to explode.
"Don't come over! You pervert, pervert, rapist, pervert-! "
The girl fell into a mental breakdown as she screamed hysterically.
Jiang Chen's expression froze awkwardly as his mouth twitched.
[This girl definitely has paranoia. I didn't even do anything …]
"Eh?"
The girl blankly stared at the clothes on her body before she looked at Jiang Chen with teary eyes.
"For example, teaching you manners. Since I've saved you, you should at least thank me honestly. "
The girl gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and used the clothes to cover her delicate body. She opened her mouth in humiliation.
"Thank, thank you."
Her voice was as stiff as it could be, as if she had been wronged by the heavens.
[Why is it so hard to say thank you?]
Jiang Chen sighed. If he threw her into the outside world, she would be devoured without leaving a single bone behind. This kind of temper was tempting to commit a crime.
Since there was no such thing as a "safe zone" in the real world, even if you hid in a room, someone could still come looking for you.
"You are Lin Lin, right? Let me reintroduce myself. I am Jiang Chen. Maybe my appearance is a bit different than in the virtual world. "
Lin Lin brusquely ignored him as she cautiously scanned him up and down.
"What about number X 71291?"
"That one, I killed it." Jiang Chen shrugged as he pointed his chin at the pile of scrap metal.
Instantly, Lin Lin's face turned green.
"What?! Are you crazy? Do you know that-! "
"The result of more than 20 years of research, data exchanged for more than 3000 lives, right?" Jiang Chen interrupted her screams and looked at the scrap metal. "It shouldn't have existed in the first place, so I destroyed it." Of course, the processor was useful, so it was left behind.
Lin Lin's tears immediately fell, and her voice was full of grievance.
"But you still can't …"
"You are quite interesting. Did you get a thrill from being coerced? Why don't I just torture you like a slave? Do you want to wear a collar? "Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows as he looked at the tear-stained face and laughed without restraint.
"You-!" The face that had regained some color turned pale again. The expression on the man's face reminded her of her current situation.
"In short, I destroyed it." Jiang Chen sighed. He didn't want to waste any more time with her. "Put on your clothes, and I will take you away from here."
"Away from here … Oh! The spaceship has departed! My father is up there. He will definitely wait for me. No, I have to get to the Jiuquan Launch Center. If you take me there, I can ask my father to find a way to get you a ticket. " The expression on Lin Lin's face constantly changed. Sometimes she was trembling, sometimes she was anxious, and in the end, she even tried to tempt Jiang Chen.
But Jiang Chen's expression was a bit strange. There wasn't the joy that Lin Lin expected.
"Are you really crazy or pretending to be crazy? How many years has it been?"
"How, how many years?" Lin Lin said blankly.
"Middle of September 2190. If you are talking about the six spaceships launched by the World Alliance Organization, it should have been successfully launched in 2176. " Jiang Chen's expression was a bit mischievous as he looked at Lin Lin's crumbling expression with interest.
"This, this is impossible …" Her eyes were shaking. Her hand that was holding onto the protective suit gradually loosened as she covered her face with trembling hands.
Staying in the virtual world had a strong sense of the thinness of time in the real world. Although she also realized that she might have stayed for a long time, she didn't expect the number to be more than ten years!
"Nothing is impossible. The elites you are talking about abandoned this land and went to destroy other planets. "Jiang Chen shrugged. To be honest, he didn't really care about what happened in this time and space.
Although this kind of method of going out to enjoy life after destroying his own home gave him a sense of déjà vu.
"Father, he … actually abandoned me." Lin Lin's eyes were filled with tears. Her slender shoulders trembled as she sobbed.
Jiang Chen was silent.
To be honest, although it was fun to tease a beauty. But he really couldn't stand the feeling of tears.
After hesitating for a moment, he let out a sigh.
"Perhaps, looking at it from another point of view, it left behind hope for this land."
"Eh?" Lin Lin lifted her teary eyes from her hands and looked at him blankly.
"You are the hope he left behind. He believes that you can bring some change to this place. Don't you have technology in your head? Let's do something with it. "
Jiang Chen didn't know how to comfort her, so he only left a few words.
The tears seemed to have stopped. He let out a sigh of relief.
"Hope?" Lin Lin murmured blankly.
"That's right."
"I see." Lin Lin stared blankly at her hands and watched the last drop of tears fall from her fingers.
A silly smile appeared on her face, and her crystal-clear eyes began to flicker with the light of hope.
"I really don't have a choice. If that's the case, then I will reluctantly help these inferior creatures …"
