Chapter 258

Vita's expression changed slightly, and she finally let out a sigh with complex emotions, "For a moment, I don't even know who has the 'Eye of Heavenly Wisdom'."

Perhaps because of the great stimulation she experienced today, Vita couldn't help but utter such a sigh. You see, because overly active thoughts would attract His attention, Vita usually wouldn't even dare to have such thoughts.

It was only because she realized that the hair clip Ai Yue gave her was indeed very useful that she gradually dared to criticize her master in her heart. Even so, this was the first time she had said it out loud.

"Can a dubious counterfeit, accumulated through cramming, be called 'omniscient and omnipotent'?"

Hearing Vita's sigh, Ai Yue couldn't help but snort, "I wouldn't want that kind of thing even if it were given to me."

"So, you really are..."

Vita couldn't help but ask cautiously, "Uh, what's your relationship with the murderer now?"

After roughly guessing Ai Yue's identity, even someone like Vita couldn't help but feel intimidated.

"Just like His relationship with you."

Ai Yue replied with a smile, "What are your thoughts?"

"I dare not express my gratitude."

Vita shook her head with a wry smile, but her emotions had gradually calmed down. "So, what is your attitude towards Him?"

What do you think?

Ai Yue countered, "You've asked enough questions already. I think that's enough to repay the favor you did for me, right?"

The implication is that now it's your turn to show your sincerity.

"That's certainly true."

Vita nodded with some distress, then suddenly made up her mind, "In order to grow stronger, He is constantly devouring the World Bubble in the Sea of Quantum —and people like me are just tools He uses to process his food."

At this point, Vita's expression turned serious than ever before. "But I am different from other tools—by chance, I have gained my true self."

"Although it's only my consciousness and spiritual self, I have gained a certain degree of freedom, but that's not enough."

Vita said in a calm but firm tone, "What I want is true freedom, the freedom to no longer carry out those disgusting orders, the freedom to travel between the stars as I please, and the freedom to act according to my personal preferences."

"That's right."

Ai Yue rested his chin on his hand. "But what does this have to do with me?"

"These things have nothing to do with you, but they do have to do with Him."

Vita continued, "If I want freedom, I can't get past the one who gave me everything and then put me in shackles, and that's exactly what you're aiming for, so we're on the same page, aren't we?"

"Although I know that my help may not be crucial to you, it will at least save you a lot of trouble—and you hate trouble."

As Vita spoke, she flashed her signature smile again. "So you see, we still have things in common, right?"

"I have to admit, you have a lot to say,"

Ai Yue nodded. "In that case, you must already have a plan?"

"It's not a matter of planning or not, because such things mean nothing to Him."

Vita shook her head. "He is a rather arrogant being. Even though he knows that I have gained my own self and will try to resist his control, he doesn't care at all. For such a being who considers himself omniscient and omnipotent, your very existence is enough to lure him in."

At this point, Vita's expression became cautious again. "Um, if I may ask, purely from the perspective of power, you should indeed be above Him, right?"

This question sounds strange, but it is actually very reasonable. After all, the strength of power and the strength of strength are two different things. If the power is not strong enough, even the strongest power cannot exert its due strength.

Firearms are naturally more powerful than bows and crossbows, but what about comparing pistols with ballistae?

"You don't need to worry about that,"

Ai Yue said confidently, "For me, the only difficulty is how to find Him."

"In that case, leave it to me."

Hearing this, Vita finally felt relieved. "But before that, I have a small question that I would like to ask for your help with."

Ai Yue saw through her thoughts at a glance. "Physical shackles, right?"

Vita didn't speak, she just nodded.

Why was Sa indifferent to Vita's self-awakening? Because Vita's life and death were in Sa's hands. If he discovered that she was plotting something, he could take Vita's life in the blink of an eye.

This means that if this connection cannot be severed, even if Ai Yue kills Sa, as long as it is not an instantaneous kill that prevents Sa from even having a thought, Sa can have Vita accompany him in death before he dies.

"This is easy to solve, just change the link."

Ai Yue looked at her and said, "After all, the swords of the previous dynasty can't buy official positions in the current dynasty, right?"

Ai Yue's intentions were quite clear: he could help Vita sever the connection between herself and Sa, but the connection would not disappear; it would simply transfer to Ai Yue. This meant that Vita was merely changing the reins around her neck to someone else.

Upon hearing this, Vita couldn't help but sigh helplessly, "Is that really so?"

"What, you don't want to?"

Ai Yue raised an eyebrow. "That would be difficult to handle."

Ai Yue didn't really care about such things. As long as he could get rid of Sa, it wouldn't be a big deal to give Vita complete freedom. After all, she was a very astute person who knew how to assess the situation. As long as he existed, she wouldn't have any designs on Earth. Although she might play some pranks, she wouldn't exceed his limits of tolerance.

But why would he do that?

"Actually, it's not that I'm unwilling,"

In response to the emotions revealed in Ai Yue's words, Vita simply shrugged. "I was just wondering if agreeing too quickly would make me seem like a fickle and unreliable woman?"

Vita's words were absolutely sincere, because even without relying on mind-reading abilities, she had already roughly figured out Ai Yue's personality through this exchange and observation.

Regardless of anything else, someone who possesses godlike power yet is willing to sit here and haggle with someone as insignificant as dust is completely different from Saha.

Moreover, his disdain for Sa's behavior, even showing contempt, means that the other party would never do the same thing as Sa, and is an upright person with a very high moral standard.

Vita certainly yearns for freedom, but she also knows that the universe is vast and boundless, and there may be one or even many individuals as powerful as Sa lurking somewhere. If she doesn't have a strong backer, even if she gains freedom, she may still encounter situations where she has no control over her own destiny.

Therefore, even if Ai Yue doesn't mention this matter, Vita will eventually find a way to connect herself with Ai Yue in some way.

Ai Yue quickly understood Vita's line of thinking and couldn't help but shake his head, "I really still can't adapt to your way of doing things."

"Uh, I can change it,"

Vita raised her hand, looking pitiful and timid, "As long as you don't dislike me, that's fine."

Clearly, after figuring out Ai Yue's temperament and personality, Vita's true nature, which had been suppressed by awe for a long time, began to emerge.

"Alright, enough of that nonsense, let's get down to business."

Watching the woman start acting like a villain again, Ai Yue shook his head slightly. "Based on your understanding of Suo, what specific plan would be more feasible?"

"It's very simple: hate is more profound than love."

Vita said with a smile, "Betrayal is a difficult thing to tolerate, especially for someone as proud as Him."

At this point, a subtle glint appeared in Vita's smile, "You know, among the countless agents He created, only I am Vita —the original identity He once abandoned."

"Such a special tool not only awakened its own self, but also betrayed her through unknown means. Even if it were you, it would be hard not to be angry, right?"

"A very reasonable speculation,"

Ai Yue nodded. "But if it's only this level, isn't it enough to attract His own pursuit?"

"Your concerns are not unfounded. After all, He is very busy these days and may not care about the damage to a tool,"

Vita nodded and continued, "So, we can go even further."

"He is a greedy black hole, constantly devouring energy to grow stronger,"

Vita paused for a moment, then continued, "So, if we can disrupt His plans and steal His food, then no matter how indifferent He may be, He absolutely cannot stand idly by."

Actually, there is an even more straightforward solution: use Ai Yue's existence as bait to lure Suo into a trap. Of course, Ai Yue's information must be processed, otherwise it will only scare the other party away.

However, since Vita had mentioned it briefly but Ai Yue hadn't responded, Vita wasn't sure about Ai Yue's attitude towards the plan, so she had to put it aside for the time being.

This time, Ai Yue finally nodded—because the current plan was similar to Vita's original plan in the story, where she tried to use Earth's power to betray the organization.

It was precisely because of this that Ai Yue was able to confirm that the plan was feasible.

"In that case, we can begin."

As Ai Yue spoke, he gave a subtle smile, "Perfect, I can also introduce you to your future new colleague."

Chapter Twenty-One: How come someone is both eating and taking things?!

In the chaotic and disordered Sea of Quantum, many things that are hard for ordinary people to imagine are hidden.

Although they may seem diverse, they all share a common thread—basically, they are all just ripples in the Sea of Quantum, echoes of this chaotic realm swallowing up foreign things.

Of course, there are a very small number of individuals who do not conform to this characteristic, and Sa is one of them.

Now, He has finally awakened from His long slumber once again, and slowly opened His eyes.

How long did you sleep this time?

A vague thought came to mind, but quickly dissipated from His consciousness.

When He was still human—or at least possessed a body somewhat similar to humans—He enjoyed recording the duration of each sleep.

However, since acquiring this "divine body" that can perfectly adapt to the environment of the Sea of Quantum, such things have lost their meaning.

No matter how long a mortal's lifespan may be, it will eventually come to an end. Therefore, He must make the most of every second to prevent himself from dying before achieving his goal.

But now that He has ascended to God and attained what can be called eternal life, why bother with such trivial details?

Compared to the time spent, Sa is now more concerned about the speed at which He accumulates His energy, because as long as He doesn't stop, He will eventually achieve His goal.

Thinking of this, He couldn't help but feel a little strange.

Now He can use His powers and agents to do things like leveling up while AFK, so unless an agent encounters something He thinks is worth intervening in and comes to report it, He generally will not easily awaken.

After all, His current state is not stable enough, and His mental state is not commensurate with His strength. Therefore, maintaining a clear mind for a long time would be harmful to Him.

But He has not received any information reported proactively, yet He still woke up.

This means that He was not awakened, but rather "awakened" by some factor.

Could it be that the "Eye of Omniscience and Omnipotence" is issuing a warning to Him?

Suo closed her eyes again and began to contemplate everything related to herself.

The energy growth rate is not bad, but a few agents have lost contact. However, this is normal loss. As long as the power is still there, the agents are just consumables that can be replenished at will.

No, wait a minute, where is "that" agent?

After checking the status of the remaining agents, Suo suddenly discovered that the special agent was gone.

A familiar yet repulsive figure surfaced in Suo's mind.

The agent who was born from His past human experiences, who later awakened to His true self in an unexpected turn of events, and who was therefore a very useful agent, is gone.

It's strange, is there anything she can't escape?

A hint of doubt flashed through Suo's mind.

After all, she was a cunning and experienced individual. As one of the earliest agents, she not only did not die from making mistakes during frequent missions, but she also managed to achieve her goals skillfully every time. Although she often deviated from the best expectations, she was still impeccable.

Although, strictly speaking, the other party's methods were always somewhat indecisive and wasted too much time and energy, it wasn't a big problem, so Suo didn't care much.

That is precisely why she is one of the more useful agents in Sa's hands.

However, such doubts only lasted for a short while before quickly dissipating.

It's a pity to waste a good agent like this, but it's not something worth putting in too much effort.

After all, no matter how useful she is, she is not so useful that she can do the work of a group of people. Even if the other party's efficiency is indeed higher than that of ordinary agents, Suo can simply create more agents to fill the gap.

The only question is, what exactly happened to the other person that led to their death?

So, what was her mission before? It seems to be... someone who might be from a large World Bubble?

Suo quickly recalled it.

After completing a mission, the agents would normally return to their dormant place to slumber, partly to hand over the collected energy and partly to "maintain" the agents and extend their lifespan.

However, instead of going into hibernation, she reported some very interesting information. This information mentioned a mysterious man wearing full-body armor who seemed to have the ability to freely enter and exit the Sea of Quantum and the World Bubble, which meant that the World Bubble from which he came was doing very well.

The better the development, the greater the energy contained within. After all, a dying World Bubble cannot nurture any powerful civilization.

It was precisely because of the desire to obtain the energy within this World Bubble that the Eye of Omniscience and Omnipotence granted the other party the authority to temporarily cease hibernation and continue executing the mission.

But I never expected that not long after that, the other person would die like this.

Could it be related to that World Bubble? If so, should we send someone to retrieve the remaining information?
