Chapter 734 The Real Lin Rui

Ten minutes later, a three-dimensional holographic video was playing in Lin Rui's office.

——That was the scene of Lin Rui being killed at 4161 o'clock on June 6, 1. The images taken by several holographic surveillance cameras were stitched together to show the events before and after Lin Rui's death in 11 degrees without any blind spots.

Lin Xi looked at the video with a strange expression.

In fact, she had long guessed that the database in Xue Bogao's hands might have fallen into Lin Rui's hands.

And with the help of Wang Yinyue, Lin Rui has most likely cracked the database.

However, since her brother didn't say anything, she didn't ask. At first, she was worried about alerting the enemy, and later she was afraid of knowing the truth.

Today, Lin Rui took the initiative to bring out the video of his "death".

When Lin Yi saw Lin Rui being shot in the head three times, his aura became agitated and the void around him began to distort.

She never knew that her brother had been killed once before.

The change occurred two breaths after Lin Rui fell to the ground. White flames began to burn all over his body, and his flesh and blood began to deform, especially the wound on Lin Rui's head, where a few strands of granulation tissue actually grew.

Lin Xi and Lin Yi's pupils widened as they stared at the scene in disbelief.

Lin Rui just sat behind his desk, drinking tea calmly: "You should know that when Lin Cong and Fu Xuexian were studying the flesh and blood of the Seventh Generation Sect Leader, there was an experimental accident. She was careless for a moment and was attacked by the soul consciousness of the Great Sun Heavenly Venerable's replica.

She was fine at the time, but Lin Rui, who was still in her belly at the time, had been possessed by the Great Sun Celestial Venerable. His soul had been severely damaged and was in a state of continuous decomposition. Fu Xuexian had been trying to find a way to solve the problem of Lin Rui's soul decay, but judging from the footage at the scene, Lin Rui's Great Sun contamination was still very serious.

Lin Xi thought that Lin Rui’s pollution was more than just ‘serious’?

Human genes are very stable, many times more stable than the genetic chain of the Tianji people. However, they are still distorted under the influence of the power of the Great Sun Lord.

But it's strange that although my brother has outstanding talent in Thunder Martial Arts, he is only slightly stronger than the average person.

Lin Rui then saw Xue Bogao's figure in the video rushing towards him. He first took out a tranquilizer gun, raised his hand and shot five anesthetic needles into Lin Rui's body, and then took out two needles with no markings and unknown models and injected them into Lin Rui's body.

Xue Bogao then used a knife to cut open a piece of flesh on the back of Lin Rui's neck, exposing a small data interface connected to the spine.

Lin Xi couldn't help but feel horrified, wondering what on earth was going on? How could there be a data port inside his brother's body?

What shocked her even more was Xue Bogao's next move.

Xue Bogao actually pulled out a fiber optic data cable from his terminal bracelet and connected it to this data port.

He then quickly started operating on a virtual screen that opened in front of him.

Just two seconds later, the white flames on Lin Rui's body were completely extinguished.

"What's going on?" Lin Xi couldn't help but ask, "What on earth is he doing?"

"It should be pruning the soul."

Lin Rui then paused the 3.3D holographic video and instead projected a large folder onto his desk, then opened a software called 'Rui 4030': "This is what's stored in Xue Bogao's database. The database he's using appears to be the outdated Tianxuanwu C304 model from 4142, but it's actually the latest version of the Tianxuanwu D421 model from 421. It contains three D304 data arrays, and its storage capacity is twelve times that of the Tianxuanwu C20 model, reaching terabytes (Yabytes).

As for this 'Rui 3.3', Wang Yinyue identified it as software specifically used to edit and prune Lin Rui's soul, most likely created by Fu Xuexian. As for this folder, it contains all of Lin Rui's thought data and memory bank."

After hearing this, Lin Yi looked confused and didn't understand what was going on.

Lin Xi's pupils widened, and he found it unbelievable and incredulous: "How is this possible? Is this the digitization of the soul or the soul of data?"

"Fu Xuexian is the top expert in soul studies for the past 20 years. She also possesses top-notch computer engineering skills. According to the intelligence we've gathered this year, Fu Xuexian not only designed the Changsheng Society's artificial skylight, but also led the research into the digitization of souls."

Lin Rui glanced at Lin Xi and said, "The reason why the Changsheng Society can control the artificial sky curtain is, firstly, because there is no particularly powerful existence in the artificial sky curtain, and secondly, because the combination of soul digitization and the artificial sky curtain can record soul data in advance, thus effectively eliminating pollution, which is equivalent to having an anchor outside the sky curtain.

And what is stored in this database is Lin Rui's soul data. Fu Xuexian should be using this method to eliminate the contamination of the sun."

Lin Rui then changed his tone, "However, when Wang Yinyue cracked the database, she discovered that when Xue Bogao was purifying and trimming Lin Rui's soul, the software called 'Rui 3.3' redirected a link to the East Asian National Security Bureau's intranet. From there, 17 YB of data was transmitted, almost completely covering Lin Rui's soul."

As Lin Rui spoke, he started playing the 3D holographic video on his desk again: "So the next scene is this."

In the video, the data interface on Lin Rui's spine actually fell off.

Xue Bogao seemed very surprised as well, but at this time, there were already pedestrians around. He hurriedly picked up the data interface on the ground and ran towards the infirmary with Lin Rui in his arms.

Lin Xi was stunned after reading it. She then took action herself and flipped through the log of Rui 3.3. She found that at 6:1:11 on June 14, there was indeed a URL jump. The software automatically opened this link, and 32YB of data was indeed transmitted from there.

Lin Xi tried to open the link again, but received a prompt that the permission had expired and access was denied.

Lin Xi looked at Lin Rui intently: "Brother, have you found out where this link leads to on the National Security Bureau's intranet?"

"It's the National Security Bureau's joint management center for property and evidence involved in the case."

Lin Rui continued to drink his tea, his face hidden in the steam rising from the hot tea, and spoke in a quiet voice: "About fourteen years ago, the National Security Bureau seized several supercomputer arrays from a secret research base of the Changsheng Society. They were said to be large models used for soul digitization research.

After research, several experts from the East Asian Academy of Sciences discovered that these supercomputer arrays were early stage research and were no longer valuable. So, after copying the data, they handed it over to the National Security Bureau. Surprisingly, one of them was still powered on, connected to the internet, and operating continuously.

Although Lin Yi and Lin Xi were listening quietly, their brows were furrowed and their moods were very complicated.

At this time, Lin Xi saw that Lin Rui shared several intelligence documents with her. Lin Xi listened and opened them while reading them, and her heart began to fluctuate again.

That was the information Lin Rui found after obtaining the SSS+ authority of the National Security Bureau. Lin Rui even shared the authority card with her, allowing her to view the specific situation of this supercomputer array.

Lin Rui continued, "Although the supercomputers in this supercomputer array were produced fourteen years ago, they used 24 of the most advanced supercomputers of the time. This model simulates a period of Earth's history between the late th and st centuries, evolving into an incredibly realistic electronic world, similar to a large-scale virtual online game, but on a much larger scale and more realistic than these games.

The experimental process was quite terrifying. It was said that the project leader asked the Changsheng Society to "recruit" a large number of volunteers who were about to die and entered the dying stage. Using their yet-to-be-perfected soul digitization technology, they uploaded the volunteers' souls into a supercomputer and let the volunteers live in this real world. On the one hand, they collected various signals of human thinking and memory, and on the other hand, they verified the shortcomings of their soul digitization technology.

But in reality, the Changsheng Society's so-called "recruitment" mostly comes from the lower classes, using money to lure these so-called "volunteers" into participating in experiments. And these 17 YB of data all come from a high school student named Lin Rui in this simulated world. "Lin Rui?" Lin Xi's eyes narrowed. She searched through this supercomputer world and indeed found a high school student named Lin Rui in this world. However, this Lin Rui died of leukemia in 2024.

She suddenly understood and clenched her hands: "This Lin Rui is my brother, right?"

"I do not know either."

Lin Rui turned around with his teacup in hand and looked outside with a complicated expression: "My memory is similar to this Lin Rui. I don't know what I am now. In the end, I am not sure if I can be considered your brother——"

Lin Rui wondered if he was the 'Lin Rui' in that virtual world. But his memories were incredibly real. He remembered his family and friends, his classmates, their voices and smiles, and even the pain he went through during his leukemia battle.

——So it turns out that all this is fake?

After hearing this, Lin Yi's eyes turned red, and then the distortion around her gradually calmed down.

She was thinking that no matter whether her brother was the same Lin Rui as before, he was still her brother.

It was her brother who risked his life to pull her out of hell and has been taking care of her ever since, keeping her away from pain and despair.

She also loved her ex-brother, but the death of 'Lin Rui' was not her brother's fault.

Lin Xi thought it must be true!
Lin Rui is the real Lin Rui, her brother Rui.

This supercomputing model was created by their mother and was a project led by her.

Also, when she was searching in this supercomputer world just now, she found that there was only one Lin Rui in the entire supercomputer world.

But Lin Xi still doesn't know why his mother did this?

Lin Xi was about to conduct further searches to verify Lin Rui's information, but Lin Rui continued, "Let's get back to the point. Now it's time to get down to business. Unleash your power of destruction and distortion to the maximum."

What they discussed before was not the most sensitive content, so Lin Rui only asked the two girls to increase the concept of destruction and distortion to 65%. Otherwise, they spent so much time watching the video and discussing, and the two girls would not be able to hold on anyway.

However, Lin Rui really didn't want anyone to know what happened next.

Lin Xi and Lin Yi looked at each other, then increased their conceptual power to the maximum again, strengthening it to 92% intensity.

Lin Rui then spoke: "I have recently studied some mechanical engineering and talisman array technology. I found that this supercomputer array has a small, complete sky-screen altar hidden inside. It can accommodate about five people."

"The Sky Curtain Altar?" Lin Xi looked puzzled. "What is that?"

She thought that her brother's talisman array technique was indeed amazing. According to Wang Yinyue, Lin Rui's level in this area was almost catching up with the top array talisman masters, but when did he study mechanical engineering?
Lin Rui explained, "I've told you before, right? The Changsheng Society's artificial sky curtain is a combination of soul digitization technology, which allows it to control the sky curtain and eliminate pollution. The Sky Curtain Altar is a device that stores soul data. It is the product of human computer technology combined with the Tianjixing rune technology."

Lin Xi and Lin Yi's pupils widened again. This super machine fell into the hands of the East Asian National Security Bureau 14 years ago.

In other words, at that time, their mother Fu Xuexian had already perfected the artificial skylight and soul digitization technology 15 years ago?

"My personal guess is that Fu Xuexian may have obtained the technical information of the seventh generation leader of the Church of Light. The magnificent altar of the Church of Light is a complete artificial sky curtain, so this artificial sky curtain technology was perfected as early as 400 years ago. Fu Xuexian's soul digitization technology may also be inherited from the seventh generation leader."

Lin Rui's eyes were filled with complexity: "This Sky Curtain Altar currently only stores the soul data of five people, namely our family of five. This data has been uploaded countless times, ending six years ago.

There were only two download records: one during the time period of Lin Rui's death, and another two hours after Fu Xuexian's death six years ago. The data showed that only a small portion of the soul data had been downloaded, prompting a warning that due to insufficient exchange costs and excessive sky pollution, the soul data on the altar was being contaminated. The network connection with the biological intelligence chip must be terminated to ensure the purity of the soul data.

When Lin Xi and Lin Yi heard this, they were shocked.

Their eyes were shining brightly, showing strong anticipation and excitement.

Is it possible that their mother is actually alive, otherwise why would they need to download soul data?
Thinking further, Fu Xuexian is not only an expert in soul and computer technology, but also personally presided over the development of artificial skylight and soul digitization technology. The couple is in the den of tigers and wolves of the Changsheng Society. With their intelligence and wisdom, how could they not leave a way out for themselves?
At this time, Lin Xi had already seen the data of the Sky Curtain Altar shared by Lin Rui.

She had no idea about sky screen technology, and if Lin Rui hadn't shared it with her, Lin Xi would never have been able to find the data.

When Lin Xi looked through the data, his expression changed again.

She discovered that the soul data of this artificial skylight was related to three characters in the simulated world.

These three characters in the simulated world were born entirely based on these three soul data.

In addition to Lin Rui, the other two people are Lin Rui's father, named Lin Tongming; the other is Lin Rui's mother Fu Weiliang, who died six years ago in the virtual world, which is exactly the time period when their mother Fu Xuexian died.

Lin Xi couldn't help but bite her lower lip, feeling so ecstatic that she couldn't control herself.

This Lin Rui must be her brother.

Lin Xi even had a thought in her mind: maybe this was her real brother——

Lin Rui in the virtual world died of leukemia. Lin Xi wondered if the true cause of this "leukemia" was the sun pollution.

She couldn't help but continue to look through Lin Rui's information in the virtual world, trying to find evidence.

Lin Rui looked out the window through the mist of tea with a melancholy look.

In his memory, he was what was then called a left-behind child. His parents worked in big cities and would come back to see him more than a dozen times a year. Every month, they would send him enough money for living expenses and medical expenses, which was quite a lot.

Looking at the supercomputer array access records he found, the time also coincided with the time his parents came to see him.

This situation ended until six years ago. After his mother died six years ago, his father Lin Tongming took him to Shanghai to take care of him personally.

Lin Rui smiled bitterly, his heart filled with panic and confusion.

He could probably guess what was going on. This should be an effort to combat the pollution from the sun, but he still couldn't understand what kind of existence he was. What was he?
And the Battle Spirit Ring in his hand, where did it come from? What kind of thing is it?
　There is only one chapter today. Please forgive me during my journey. Everything will be back to normal tomorrow.

　　And those who say that the land reclamation has withered, don’t you know that it is winter vacation now? With the little devil at home, how can I concentrate on the land reclamation and write the book wholeheartedly? In short, please understand.
