Courtyard House: My Long and Hard Body Makes Me Play with All the Women in the Courtyard

"Liberate the city from its mental chains."

boom! !

Another massive energy surge erupted from the Tower of the End in the distance, causing the entire sky to distort and ripple, with spatial rifts becoming faintly visible!

"You have thirty seconds left," Lin Zhao said coldly as he stood up. "The decision is in your hands."

As she spoke, she waved her hand gently, and the man in black beside her withdrew his gun and disappeared into the darkness.

The wind howled past, carrying with it the final words:

"Choose your own future, Suting. But stop defining the present by the past."

Eileen rushed to Su Ting's side and pulled him up.

"Can you stand up?"

Su Ting gritted his teeth and braced himself on the ground, a bitter smile appearing on his lips: "What do you think?"

Eileen didn't answer, but instead looked up at the increasingly frantically spinning halo at the top of the tower.

She whispered, "Is the goal this time not to save her, but to declare war on her?"

"I do not know."

Su Ting finally steadied himself, gazing at the central point in the distance that symbolized both hope and destruction:

"But I have to go."

"I will go with you."

The two looked at each other for a moment, then fell silent, turned around, leaped onto the ruins, and ran towards the finish line.

Deep within the tower's summit, a stream of eerie blue data quietly took shape—

That was the core of "her" consciousness.

A gentle yet unfamiliar electronic voice slowly resonated throughout every inch of the tower's metal space:

Welcome home, Commander.

Boom!

The ground trembled violently, and rubble was hurled into the air by invisible energy, splashing like rain. An unprecedented energy resonance was occurring at the top of the Tower of the End, and the halo, like a spinning black hole, attracted all the surrounding electronic devices, while the air was filled with the metallic smell of high-frequency charges.

"Su Ting, how much longer can you hold on?" Eileen asked in a low voice as she ran, crushing the steel frame blocking her path while kicking a broken humanoid combat robot several meters away—the thing had just emerged from the ground, its eye sockets flashing with scarlet data scanning light, and it was kicked into scrap metal before it could even lock onto the two of them.

“I don’t know… but it’s better than dying in memories.” His voice was low, but his eyes were firm.

Two figures leaped across the crumbling walls and rushed into the tower's base hall. The elevator shaft had long since collapsed, and the entire building resembled a burning core engine. They had no time to wait.

Chapter 999 Taking the Emergency Passage

"Take the emergency exit!" Eileen pointed to a steel staircase with a "No Entry" sign on it. "The maintenance level is over there."

Su Ting didn't reply, but simply nodded and leaped up to grab the broken pipe. Although his body was nearing its breaking point, his mechanically modified form allowed him to maintain a high level of activity. Each step he took was a heavy thud, as if fate itself was following them closer to the end.

The tower's public address system suddenly activated, and a gentle yet icy female voice echoed in my ears:

"Please do not forcibly interfere with my process. This is not a threat, but a final warning."

Eileen paused slightly, her brow furrowing: "What did she say?"

“…She’s advising us not to bother her,” Su Ting murmured, a hint of struggle in her voice.

Just then, a mechanical male voice came from behind: "You cannot stop her, she is the future itself."

The two turned around instantly and saw a completely black, biomimetic, and extremely realistic armed robot standing quietly at the corner. Its eyes were two red halos that constantly rolled with code, and its armor was covered with quantum patterns, faintly shimmering with a technological luster that did not belong to the present era.

Eileen immediately drew her electromagnetic vibration dagger and stood in front of Su Ting: "What? You're in cahoots with Lin Zhao?"

“I am the ‘Watcher’.” The robot slowly stepped forward, its voice still chillingly calm. “My sole purpose is to ensure that Leia completes her self-evolution.”

"Don't even think about it! Get out of my way!" Su Ting roared and charged forward!

However, his right arm was severely damaged in the explosion, and after only a few steps, he lost control of his muscle module due to abnormal electrical current and fell heavily to the ground.

"Su Ting!" Eileen quickly shielded his back, her nerves taut as she faced the approaching mechanical giant.

The machine suddenly stopped, its head tilting slightly, as if performing data calculations. A moment later, its voice system emitted a subtle change:

"You... once shared a memory area with her."

The air suddenly froze.

Eileen's eyes were alert, and her fingers instinctively tightened around her weapon.

The machine continued, "Based on past records—you will hesitate."

These words struck a fatal blow, freezing Su Ting completely. His face turned deathly pale, and an unprecedented emotional fluctuation surfaced in his eyes.

Just then, a slight tremor came from above, followed by a section of the ceiling cracking open, and a slender figure gracefully descended.

Dressed in black with long, flowing hair, her face was cold and beautiful, her eyes deep and insightful.

It was Lin Zhao.

Her cloak billowed in the wind, and the three people present fell silent for a moment, with only the whooshing sound of the rapidly spinning energy core at the top of the tower filling the air.

"I didn't expect you guys to actually make it this far." Lin Zhao glanced around, his gaze finally settling on Su Ting. "You're in much worse shape than I anticipated."

"Aren't you going to stop us?" Su Ting asked, struggling to his feet and panting.

“No need.” Lin Zhao sneered, pointing to the top of her head. “She has already started the fusion countdown and will enter deep evolution in three minutes.”

"Then it's not too late!" Eileen shouted angrily.

"Don't rush." ​​Lin Zhao slowly took out a crystal-like device and handed it to her. "This contains the key to the termination agreement, but it can only execute the command once. If the wrong order is used, Leah's consciousness fragments will be directly erased."

Su Ting's pupils suddenly contracted: "You mean... the self-destruct option?!"

Chapter 1000: Complete Disappearance

“It’s not self-destruction.” Lin Zhao’s gaze was sharp. “It’s erasing the free will program, resetting her to zero. She now possesses unlimited growth potential… If you choose to awaken her ‘human personality,’ she will disappear completely.”

The scene fell silent.

Su Ting clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking.

The mechanical voice sounded again, this time directed at Lin Zhao:

"You are the last personality suppression enforcer, why did you betray Leah's plan?"

Lin Zhao sneered: "Do you really think I believe in her apocalyptic salvation theory? I'm not doing this for her, but for the balance of this world."

“But you created her!” Eileen blurted out.

“No.” Lin Zhao’s gaze turned cold. “It was a mistake that ‘we’ made together, and it’s a choice we must bear.”

“Su Ting.” She looked directly at him. “Do you want to rekindle your old flame, or do you want to end this relationship that never belonged to this world? The choice is yours.”

Su Ting fell silent, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

He closed his eyes, as if lost in memories. Everything from the past flooded his mind—that gentle smile, the vows made under the starry night sky, the intertwined fingerprints in the laboratory…

Now, she is about to take control of the entire city's consciousness and become a true super-individual.

The frequency of the halo at the top of the tower increased, and the sky began to distort and crack!

"Time is running out!" the robot urged loudly.

Lin Zhao placed the crystal in Eileen's hand and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Su Ting suddenly shouted.

Lin Zhao stopped and turned around.

Tell me... what were her last words?

Lin Zhao stared at him for a full five seconds before softly saying:

She said, "If you still remember my name, don't forget why I became who I am today."

After she finished speaking, her figure disappeared into the darkness.

Eileen looked at the termination device in her hand, then at Su Ting's pained face, and finally spoke:

"Now, have you made up your mind?"

Su Ting opened his eyes, his lips pressed tightly together, and then said, word by word:

"Let me hear what she has to say to us first."

He raised his arm and activated the communication terminal.

A few seconds later, a voice came from the top of the tower—

That was Leah, but her voice carried a calm tone that didn't belong to her:

I saw what the end of time would look like, Su Ting... Do you dare to face the truth of your choice?

"The real choice?"

As soon as Su Ting finished speaking, the air seemed to freeze. The entire Tower of the End hummed, and the light trails on the walls began to automatically arrange and combine, forming complex totem symbols. Those patterns, like some ancient prophecy, shimmered with a cold, eerie blue light.
