Chapter 160 They've even given up being human.
"Wake up, Lu He!"
It was the familiar sound of the system.
Feeling drowsy and with a stuffy head, Lu He slowly sat up and found herself lying in a milky-white space.
"I'm not dead?" Lu He was very surprised.
Wasn't it supposed to be removed?
"You're still alive. Congratulations on completing the mission," the system mechanically announced.
"I'm still alive? Why?" Lu He was completely baffled. Could it be that the conditions the system had given her earlier were a test?
Was the decision to kill Li Cen a test of her humanity?
"You said before that I could only be alive if Li Cen died, you were lying to me, weren't you?" Lu He asked, eagerly seeking confirmation of her inner suspicion.
"...Actually...Li Cen, she..." The system hesitated, unsure whether it should tell her or not.
In the system's view, Lu He was somewhat difficult to control and unpredictable. If the truth were told to her, she might start to give up on herself again.
"What did you say?"
"It's nothing. Anyway, you've survived. Get ready to move on to the next volume of the story."
The system finally decided to say nothing.
"Is there anything I can prepare?" Lu He asked.
"Well, you can choose three of the items you exchanged before to take to the next world. Consider it a small compensation from me."
"So there's no death in the next world?"
Is he addicted to cheating? Doesn't he want to work hard anymore? The system couldn't help but click its tongue in amazement. The human tendency to take shortcuts is universal, regardless of the dimension.
"Of course not. I've checked and rechecked the next volume of the manga, being extremely careful, so there won't be any more mistakes. Naturally, there's nothing I need to compensate you for."
That's true; you can't always rely on others making mistakes to find fault with them. Lu He also understood that ultimately, she still had to rely on her own efforts to complete those tasks.
How many points did I get for this mission?
Lu He thought she should look up something useful first.
"20 points."
"Wow, that's quite a lot." Lu He stroked his chin, somewhat satisfied. It was only 80 points away from 100, not too far off.
She carefully looked through the redemption list and then selected three items from her existing list of items.
“I’m ready,” Lu He replied.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the previous list of owned items was burned.
Then a dazzling white light flashed before her eyes, and Lu He shielded her eyes with her hand...
After sending her away from the system space, numerous white particles in the space converged and condensed into a small white dough ball.
Eyes, a nose, and a mouth sprouted from the small dough balls.
It slowly opened its eyes, revealing a joyful expression.
"I've finally materialized?" For the system, this is a kernel upgrade.
The ability to display data physically represents a core technological upgrade. Although the system itself is unclear about the principles behind the code execution.
But the supreme intelligence, that is, the life form of the highest dimension, is a very advanced being that created this program.
After the little white ball of energy condensed, it quickly disintegrated again. The system didn't need a physical form; it just needed to upgrade to a higher level of super intelligence.
"Why do I feel like I can sense emotions now?" the system muttered to itself.
This feeling of guilt and remorse is something that only living beings would have, not something that appears in an intelligent program.
But for some reason, after seeing Lu He off and completing the upgrade, it felt inexplicably nervous and uneasy, with a kind of heart palpitation that made it afraid to face Lu He.
And just thinking about Li Cen brings me pain, as if my heart has grown out of me; I can understand what heartache feels like.
"Did I really do the right thing?" The system was also bewildered: "Was it right of me not to tell Li Cen about this?"
As for Lu He, she was blinded by colorful light all the way through the teleportation channel, which made her feel dizzy.
When I woke up again, I was lying on a lush green lawn.
She slowly opened her eyes, adjusting to the oasis before her; it felt like a fairyland.
The sky was a clear, deep blue, with fluffy white clouds drifting by, and sunlight filtering through the clouds, casting a golden glow.
The lush green meadows meet the sea of clouds, and colorful flowers bloom, making you feel as if you are in a fairy tale world.
Shady trees and blooming flowers create a picturesque scene.
The air was filled with a refreshing fragrance that was invigorating.
The sound of flowing water came from afar. Lu He sat there, staring blankly at the scenery around him.
Not far away, you can see a stream flowing gently, the water is crystal clear, and you can see a group of colorful little fish playing in the water.
Looking up along the stream, you see lush green meadows and colorful flowers on both sides of the road, and a waterfall where the sky and water meet amidst the misty peaks.
What kind of comic is this? It looks like a cultivation novel.
Lu He tried to stand up, but suddenly found that she couldn't.
What's going on here?
She looked at her hands and feet in alarm.
This!
Why are they furry paws?
She eagerly scratched at the grass with her paws, enjoying the soft feeling of stepping on the earth.
If I'm not mistaken, she's probably some kind of animal right now!
Is this really that outrageous? Are they abandoning all humanity this time?
