I was completely stunned.
What the doctor said seemed unbelievable to me.
Zhuangzi's eyes widened as well. "Are you sure you didn't misread it?"
The doctor shot him a sidelong glance. "Would I misread it? Watch. In half an hour, another Heavenly Stem will have all its data wiped. As for which one, I don't know."

Zhuangzi said nothing, and his expression grew even uglier.
He asked the doctor, "Was this really preconfigured in the system?"
The doctor nodded.
I was genuinely shocked. The system actually had such a setting.
This was a critical moment. Little Barren Island was facing a matter of survival.

I asked the doctor, "Can you stop the wipe program?"
The doctor said, "Yes, but it will take some time."
I frowned. I understood what taking time meant. If it took more than an hour, we would lose
