"A world prison?" Ling Yi murmured.
"Yes, to me, it's a cage. For the next thousand years, ten thousand years, trillions of years, this world will not Changes at all."
"Technology will not become stronger, and humanity will never be able to leave the Solar System. Beyond the Solar System lies Void. To be precise, the Solar System is Prison, Prison for humanity."
"Outside the Solar System, it's Void? You mean, the entire universe, except for the Solar System, is fake?" Ling Yi asked in surprise.
"The universe is real." Lucy shook her head.
Ling Yi: "..."
"Looking at the universe from within the Solar System, the universe is real, but humanity can never leave the Solar System, or rather, humanity can only operate within the Solar System."
"So we'll never know that everything outside the Solar System is fake."
So, Ling Yi understood. "If you can't see the truth, you'll be forever blinded by falsehood, right?"
Lucy nodded.
"I can't guarantee I can take you out of this world, because my transmigration also relied on a system, which you can think of as some kind of mysterious and powerful entity."
"And I cannot be certain that the system will allow you to leave this world, even if it's just in the form of consciousness data."
Ling Yi was still unsure whether he could take Lucy away.
"If the system doesn't allow it, you could be erased, or even permanently removed."
Lucy shook her head. "This is my choice."
"I'll be leaving in seven days. We'll see then!"
After a pause, Ling Yi said, "In these seven days, I want you to package up all the technology in this world."
"Okay!" Lucy said, and then exploded into blue light again, but this time she went straight into the Computer.
Ling Yi now wishes he could bring Lucy back to the real world.
Since he could have absolute control over Lucy's consciousness, he naturally didn't need to worry about Lucy's betrayal.
The key point is that if Lucy were around, it would be a huge help to Ling Yi, both in the real world and in the world he travels through.
This is equivalent to giving Ling Yi another cheat code.
Meanwhile, things started to stir around Robert homeless man's side as well.
Around one o'clock in the morning, Robert, who was sleeping, suddenly sat up, his eyes flashing with purple light.
A moment later, a purple light emanated from Robert's body, and he actually flew directly into the air.
The next moment, it shot straight into the sky and disappeared from the surveillance footage.
A few minutes later, Robert, whose appearance had changed drastically, appeared in front of Ling Yi.
Robert was now clean-shaven and dressed in a well-fitting grey suit.
Her originally messy hair was now meticulously styled.
To be honest, Robert's appearance is quite good; he has a handsome, Uncle vibe.
"What is that?" Robert flew up to Ling Yi Ling Yi, looked down at him, and asked with a frown.
This attitude and tone immediately made Ling Yi somewhat displeased.
Before Ling Yi could say anything, Robert spoke again, "However, that's not important. I've already become a god in this world, and one god is enough."
As he spoke, a purple light gleamed in Robert's eyes as he stared at Ling Yi.
A moment later, the purple light in Robert's eyes disappeared, and he frowned as he asked, "Why can't I read your memories?"
" Lucy!" Ling Yi rolled his eyes and called out directly.
The next moment, a blue light appeared out of thin air and enveloped Robert.
Robert seemed to Perception the threat posed by the blue light, screamed in terror, and turned to run away.
But as soon as he turned around, his body turned into Void and disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, the blue light distorted, Lucy appeared.
Ling Yi clicked his tongue and muttered, "The special effects are a little lacking."
"Just as I predicted, the CPH4 Aggregate, while usable by everyone, is significantly less effective."
"Tell me about it." Ling Yi didn't care whether the effect was good or bad.
Even if it's the worst, it can still fly; that alone makes it valuable enough.
Keep in mind, Ling Yi's body is still that of an ordinary person!
" The CPH4 Aggregate cannot fully read the genetic data; it can only read the surface data within the compressed genetic data package. Therefore, it cannot become a conscious entity and remains in human form."
"Um, could you be more specific?"
"Genetic data is actually divided into three levels, which you can think of as triple data compression. CPH4 can only parse the first level of data."
Give me the parameters!
Lucy waved her hand, and a blue window appeared out of thin air in front of Ling Yi.
The above are Robert's data parameters, yes, in Chinese.
Looking at this window interface, Ling Yi had a feeling that this was what a proper system interface should look like.
Take another look at your system interface.
White background with black text; there are only two entries.
One is the system name, and the other is a countdown timer for either time travel or exit.
And then, that was it.
It looks like a defective product no matter how you look at it; it's not high-end at all.
[ Robert: Physical Strength 90, Abilities: Magnetic Field Control, Gravity Control, Memory Reading, Memory Modification, Electronic Data Manipulation, Atomic-Level Matter Alteration, Shapeshifting, Surface-Level Gene Alteration...]
Good grief, is this the weaker version Lucy was talking about?
This is already unbeatable, okay?
"Can this physical strength be further improved?"
"No, the human body's strength Limit of 100, unless the Transformation, such as turning some cells into alloys. However, then it would no longer be human."
"Furthermore, the non-conscious state has energy units, meaning that any action requires the consumption of its own energy."
"But this problem doesn't exist for consciousness. For consciousness, this world is an energy source; as long as the world doesn't perish, it will never lack energy."
You know the Mutants in X-Men, right?
Ling Yi nodded.
" Robert, that's actually the situation."
So, Ling Yi had a general understanding, but as he said before, even so, it was already very strong.
"What about the side effects?" Ling Yi asked.
"The energy consumption is quite high. If we take the total energy contained in an average person's body as one unit, then Robert needed three units of energy to fly here from the old Los Angeles area."
"Before he arrived, Robert visited the power plant and absorbed 90 units of electricity."
"The upper limit of physical strength is the upper limit of energy reserves."
Is it enough to just attract electricity?
Ling Yi took a deep breath and said impatiently, "I want to use the CPH4 Aggregate."
"But I can't speed you up," Lucy reminded her.
Ling Yi knew this was due to the system, and sighed helplessly. Did he have to wait ten years in this world?
A single CPH4 Aggregate requires a month to Fusion, and a single CPH4 Aggregate can only increase the development rate by 1%.
One hundred months!
The key point is that even if he becomes Transcendent being a hundred months later, it won't make much difference, since he can't take those powers back with him.
"Never mind, let's talk about it when we get back to the real world."
Seven days later, the system's one-month countdown finally ended.
Ling Yi said to Lucy, "I'm leaving. Are you ready?"
Lucy nodded, then transformed into blue light and entered Ling Yi 'Ling Yi brain, becoming his memory data.
More accurately, it transforms into a microbial electrical state within the brain.
Only in this way can we ensure that Lucy's true form will not be affected.
As for Lucy's database, it's all in a super-compressed state, so it won't take up much of Ling Yi's brain's storage space.
Ling Yi has not yet taken the CPH4 Aggregate, so he naturally cannot understand this data status.
Taking a deep breath, Ling Yi chose to return.
The next moment, Ling Yi's figure disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was back in Ling Yi's bedroom in the real world.
I checked the time: 12:04:22 AM.
" Lucy!" Ling Yi called out.
The next moment, a blue cesium Light Ball flew out from Ling Yi's forehead.
But has this been scaled down?
When Lucy transformed into Light Ball, she was the size of a basketball, but now she's only the size of a ping-pong ball.
Furthermore, the light was dim, and it appeared semi-transparent.
" Lucy, what's going on?" Ling Yi asked.
But Lucy didn't respond to Ling Yi. Instead, she flew shakily towards Ling Yi's Computer and crawled directly into the Computer screen.
" Lucy?" Ling Yi called again.
But there was still no response.
Ling Yi had a rough idea of what was going on, and sat down in front of the Computer.
A few minutes later, a message appeared on the Computer screen: Put on your headphones.
Ling Yi quickly grabbed the earphones next to him and put them on.
Immediately afterwards, Lucy's voice came through the earphones.
"Your Computer speakers are broken." That was Lucy's first sentence.
Is this the key point? What's your current situation?
"The world is different. I cannot invoke the power of the World Rule. Right now, I'm just a piece of data, or rather, I can only be considered an artificial intelligence at this point."
"Furthermore, I can no longer change my form; I can only exist as data."
"Also, the data packets I compressed earlier can no longer be parsed. With the current computer technology in this world, it's simply impossible to handle such a massive data conversion," Lucy said, frustrated.
So, is Lucy practically crippled?
"So, the CPH4 Aggregate is out of the question too?"
"If we could build an atomic deconstruction apparatus, we could naturally create CPH4 Aggregate, but this is not something an ordinary person can make."
Ling Yi was certainly aware of this, and moreover, Ling Yi had no intention of building the atomic deconstruction instrument himself.
"Give the design blueprints for the atomic deconstruction instrument to the Ancient Science Academy. You know the Ancient Science Academy, right?"
"Although I have been weakened, I am still the strongest artificial intelligence life form in this world. Wherever there is a network, that is my territory."
Okay, at least it's somewhat useful.
" Ling Yi, are you planning to use the power of your Ancient Country to create an atomic deconstruction device?"
"When in Rome, do as the Romans do. You should now say 'our Ancient Country,' not 'your Ancient Country '!"
