It had heard a voice … a voice that could grant it its wish.
Break free from Lin … take control of the city … leave this place … return to the Void … find its companions …
That was its wish, the brainsoul's wish, and it was certain that it could fulfill it.
Before entering the frozen rift, the brainsoul did not think so, and it believed that it would take a long time to achieve those goals.
But after entering the frozen rift, the brainsoul's thoughts changed … it believed that it could achieve those goals immediately.
When it saw Lin activate the city's weapon system, the brainsoul immediately acted.
The first step was to take back control of the city, and for that … it had already prepared.
When the brainsoul learned that the city's intelligence was related to the citizens' minds, it had prepared a large number of … troops.
These troops could be called the 'brainsoul subspecies', a type of energy lifeform born from normal brainsouls, which could also be considered 'mini' brainsouls.
They had no intelligence, and only had a simple function, which was to affect the emotions of living beings.
The brainsoul had prepared many of these mini brainsouls a long time ago, mainly to use them to take control of the city. The brainsoul had mixed these mini brainsouls into the city's … manufacturing system.
But because the effects were not very good, it was never used.
Still, they were not destroyed, and as long as it wanted, the brainsoul could make these mini brainsouls mixed into the citizens' armor take effect immediately.
After entering the frozen rift, the brainsoul finally realized … that it could use these mini brainsouls. When Lin activated the weapon system, the brainsoul had the mini brainsouls influence the citizens' emotions, causing them to become hostile towards Lin's pompoms.
Then, these weapons began to attack Lin's pompoms.
That was the first step … to take back control of the city, and the brainsoul would then proceed to the second step, which was to return to the graveyard's desert. Thus, it continued to use emotional influence to move the city back to its original position.
This was mainly because … that 'voice' told the brainsoul that it could leave.
But under normal circumstances, the brainsoul would not … trust the voice, but the voice had a special ability to influence the brainsoul.
It made the brainsoul believe that its wish would come true. In other words, from the moment it first heard the voice …
The brainsoul's confidence continued to grow, and it became more and more convinced that it could escape Lin, take control of the city, leave this place, and find its companions.
This voice seemed to give the brain spirit a lot of confidence, but it also had some … negative effects.
That was the result of overconfidence that caused it to overlook certain issues … The braindead knew that many of Lin's pompoms and troopers had not been destroyed, they were hiding in various parts of the city, and one of them was even in the AI control system.
It did not do anything about it. Instead, it thought that the pompoms were 'no big deal' threats, and so calmly waited in the room for the city to leave the solidified gap.
In fact, at that time, Brainspirit had already become … abnormal due to overconfidence.
That was until Lin used the Rock Spider to sneak into the brain spirit's room and injected the little Core Protector into the brain spirit's … jar.
At the time, Lin did this mainly to test Brainsoul's mental state, and also to see if the little Core Protector could hear the 'voice' Brainsoul heard.
After the little Core Protector entered the brain spirit's jar, it continued to attack the brain spirit with words.
At first, the brain spirit ignored the little Core Protector. It only investigated where the little Core Protector came from, and because the 'entrances' of the Rock Spider and the little Core Protector were well hidden, the brain spirit did not discover them at first.
Brainsoul did not mind either. It felt that it did not matter even if it did not discover them, since the little Core Protector did not do any actual harm to it, and it could just leave it be.
It would wait until the city left anyway …
However, the brain spirit's thoughts did not last long.
Because the little Core Protector continued to attack the brain spirit with words, the effects were getting stronger and stronger. The little Core Protector's words seemed to slowly restore the brain spirit's overconfidence … to normal.
To put it simply, the little Core Protector's words were interfering with the voice's influence on the brain spirit.
This allowed the brain spirit to recover from its overconfident state of thinking that nothing mattered. It was only then that it realized the severity of the situation …
When the brain spirit realized that Lin's troopers were all here, and that she had even placed a little Core Protector in it, it immediately began to think of a solution after it recovered.
First, it thought of a way to activate some of the more hidden detection systems in the room, and found where the Rock Spider was hiding.
However, the brain spirit also noticed that the little Core Protector in its tank could not be removed through normal means, so it thought of … a solution.
It could move itself into another machine, and leave the little Core Protector in its empty shell.
Hence, the brain spirit called in a mechanical brain. This mechanical brain had undergone 'special training', and would respond directly to any orders the brain spirit gave it. Once the brain spirit entered it, it did not need to communicate with it, and could directly command its body.
Before the mechanical brain came, the brain spirit pretended that nothing was wrong. Then, when the mechanical brain reached the room's entrance, it immediately ran to the room's entrance and quickly moved itself into the mechanical brain. Then, it pushed its original mechanical body away, and completely got rid of the little Core Protector.
Of course, that was not the end. The brain spirit decided to blow up the entire room, get rid of the Rock Spider and the little Core Protector, and then thoroughly investigate and eliminate all of Lin's troopers in the city, eliminating all threats.
However … this idea did not come to fruition.
Because it had moved into the mechanical brain, the little Core Protector could not continue to help the brain spirit interfere with that voice.
The influence of that voice once again took effect on the brain spirit, and it returned to its inflated state of confidence. Nothing mattered anymore.
Then, the brain spirit ignored the Rock Spider in the room, and did not hunt down other Lin's troopers. Instead, it ran up to the roof.
This city would definitely be moved away, and then everything that followed would come to fruition … this thought filled the brain spirit's mind, and it did not care about anything else.
However, this led to another problem … and that was the mechanical brain that the brain spirit was residing in. Although it had undergone special training and could immediately respond to any of the brain spirit's orders, it was still essentially an independent creature.
Although the brain spirit entered a state of confidence due to the voice, this mechanical brain did not become overconfident. It … only felt that the brain spirit in its brain seemed to be very strange, and would send it a lot of strange messages.
These messages were nothing more than a large number of the brain spirit's wishes being fulfilled, such as taking control of the city, leaving this place, and finding companions.
Like a high-speed movie, the process of these wishes was played … over and over again in the mechanical brain's mind.
In the end, this caused the mechanical brain's endocrine to become abnormal, and it entered a state of madness.
