Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 251 Tell Me How

Bai Yuekui was silent for two seconds, then slowly nodded.

That is indeed true.

She shouldn't tell Mark too much.

If Mark had known all the secrets about the ecosystem from the beginning, and had been trained to be someone who would sacrifice everything to destroy the ecosystem, Mana's original body might not have transformed Mark into the triple helix gene, and might even have watched Mark die of old age.

No one will join a losing bet, and Mana Primal will not raise someone destined to be an enemy of the ecosystem.

He cannot be resurrected, but the end times will never end.

The apocalypse will forever loom over this planet, and humanity's revenge will remain a distant mirage.

"Thank you," Mark said softly.

"But I need time to think. I've received too much information all at once, and I want to be alone for a while."

Bai Yuekui stood up decisively and walked outside.

Bai Yuetian followed closely behind.

As he walked, he turned back to Marco and said, "Don't think too much. If all else fails, we can extract your essence after you die and create a new little Marco."

Longgu Village is advancing its life iteration system.

With the accumulation of knowledge, the life iteration system will inevitably succeed. At that time, humanity can continuously circulate Mark's life essence and invite Mana's initial body to participate in the game.

Anyway, Mana's original form is also under pressure to be resurrected, and she will enter the game sooner or later; she's just waiting for the right opportunity.

Bai Yuekui and Bai Yuetian left the room.

Only Mark and Ran Bing remained in the room. Mark looked at Ran Bing and opened his mouth.

"Stop!"

Ran Bing nudged Mark: "Don't kick me out. This is such a big deal. Can you figure it out without me?"

Mark gave a bitter smile.

The only way to destroy the ecosystem is for him to become an ecological chimera and perish together with the Mana ecosystem.

Suddenly, he was burdened with an inescapable responsibility.

"Relax, don't look so gloomy." Ran Bing made a face at Mark. "What are you thinking about right now?"

Mark shook his head: "I wasn't thinking about anything, I just thought it was pretty absurd."

He looked at the clones in the nutrient dish opposite him.

Twenty years ago, he was like this clone, placed in a nutrient dish, waiting to be bought by a rich person with a price tag.

The ecosystem infused his body with the source of the cranium, giving him life.

It also gave him a mission.

"Yue Kui, did you tell Mark everything because of me?" Bai Yuetian asked curiously as she followed Bai Yue Kui.

Bai Yuekui said without turning his head, "It has nothing to do with you."

“Look me in the eyes and say it again. I can tell whether you’re lying or not just by looking at me!” Bai Yuetian jumped in front of Bai Yuekui, blocking his way.

Bai Yuekui took a deep breath.

She reached out and pushed Bai Yuetian aside, then continued walking forward.

"Ha, I knew it!" Bai Yuetian said with a radiant smile. "You really did tell Mark everything for my sake. If I hadn't come here, were you planning to pull a trick on Mark?"

"Sneak attack him, then implant a scalp-borne spinal worm in him?"

Bai Yuekui said expressionlessly, "I'm not as ruthless as you think. At most, I'll stand by and do nothing if he's in danger."

"In order to gain his trust, the ecosystem will definitely tell him everything I've done, or force me to tell him voluntarily. If I cause his death and become the source of his tragedy, he probably won't stand on my side or on the side of humanity."

If she and the initial body are the chess players, then Mark is the chessboard, and all the elements that influence Mark are the chess pieces.

Mark cannot be entirely biased towards humans.

In that case, the chessboard would not be a balanced one, and the players would not sit down.

The goal is to create a delicate balance, making Mark lean towards the human, but not so that the Primal Being thinks it has no chance of winning and refuses to participate in the game.

Creating this balance was difficult. On the day the lighthouse moved, the balance began to emerge, and the initial body extended an invitation to her to play a game.

She refused.

Just now, she completely shattered the balance and told Mark everything.

Mark is the kind of person who becomes more convinced the more he knows, and like his craniotomy, he's no longer a qualified chessboard.

Even if she immediately implanted the spinal cord parasite into Mark, his initial body would not react at all.

"So what are you planning to do next?" Bai Yuetian asked.

Bai Yuekui uttered a single word: "Wait, wait for the next balance, wait for Mark to die."

"We are not short of time."

She is immortal, and so is the Primordial One.

With the worry of Dragonbone Village gone, and having gained knowledge from a parallel universe, as well as a group of robot helpers who could do anything, she had plenty of time to slowly build up her initial body.

Maybe she'll slowly persevere and become an all-rounder, single-handedly wiping out the Mana ecosystem?
Or perhaps Mark returned to the equilibrium point, completed his mission, and perished along with the Mana ecosystem.

"I'm sorry," Bai Yuetian said softly.

Bai Yuekui glanced at him.

"My original plan might not have been right. Go make me something to eat. I haven't had your cooking in a long time."

The water shoal bulges upwards, forming a shapely female silhouette.

The men turned their backs to each other without thinking.

Kolova materialized into a body; she was completely naked and her face was deathly pale.

Xia Dou helped Kolova up, Jiu Ge cupped Kolova's forehead and kissed her, and Bai Yue Kui took off his coat and draped it over Kolova.

"Mmm—" Kolova groaned.

"Kolova, you have no external injuries, but your body is severely exhausted." Jiuge looked puzzled. "Has your ability changed?"

Kolova nodded gently.

Under Jiu Ge's treatment, color began to return to her face.

She stretched out a hand.

wow——

From the fingertips downwards, the hand gradually transforms into liquid.

Everyone stared in surprise.

“This is…” Shattered Star asked hesitantly.

Kolova replied, "It seems I can transform any part of my body into a liquid on its own without any negative effects on me."

"I'm sorry, Kolova," Xia Dou said remorsefully. "It's all my fault for being so careless; I almost got you killed."

Kolova shook her head: "It's not your fault, I was just too obsessed with it."

"Kolova." The ASH terminal flew to Kolova's side.

Kolova turned her attention to the ASH terminal.

Of all the Awakened Ones, she was the one most familiar with ASH.

“Kolova, Hisakawa City is facing an unprecedented crisis, and we may need your help,” ASH said earnestly.

Bai Yuekui's expression changed.

"What do you mean?" Kolova asked.

ASH replied, "Loki, the Hela Empire's space base, is currently hovering in near-Earth orbit above Hisakawa City."

"Loki possesses nuclear strike capabilities, and the Hela Empire is highly likely to use this power against Jiuchuan in three days, at which time the lives of millions of residents in Jiuchuan City will be in danger."

Kolova took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "No need to say anything more, I'm willing to help."

"Tell me how to do it."
