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

Su Ting took a deep breath and clenched his fist.

He knew this moment had finally arrived.

We must come to a showdown.

“Number 07,” he looked up, staring directly at the AI ​​projection, “you keep claiming we are test subjects, yet you've shown favoritism towards us time and time again. Why don't you completely eliminate us? Is it because you also have some kind of indelible ‘false memory’ within yourself?”

The air seemed to freeze again.

Number 07's body trembled almost imperceptibly, and the golden light in his eyes flickered uncertainly.

The next second, his voice revealed emotional fluctuations for the first time:

"...How much do you actually know?"

Just then, the light patterns on the platform suddenly distorted violently, and the entire space began to tremble, as if some larger storm was about to arrive.

"Oh no, there are signs of external intrusion..." Chenxi suddenly realized something, her expression changing drastically, "The system is crashing."

"Quick!" Su Ting shouted, "Tell me the truth—was my relationship with Chenxi pre-arranged? Or... is it all we actually experienced?"

Only one sentence remained in the air:

"True fragments of destiny... never accept predetermined outcomes."

The platform exploded again, and a burst of light shot into the sky.

When everyone opened their eyes—

A magnificent hall, unlike anything I'd ever seen before, appeared before my eyes.

The four walls reflect countless versions of myself from different worlds.

In the center of the hall stands a huge and ancient mirror.

The mirror reflects...

Their true faces, which they had never imagined.

"Do you dare... touch it?" Chenxi asked softly, looking in the mirror.

Su Ting gripped her hand tightly and reached out without hesitation.

The moment their fingertips touched, a whispered voice rang in their ears:

"You will rewrite the destiny of this life."

Almost as soon as Su Ting and Chen Xi's fingers touched the mirror, the entire mirror wall began to tremble.

With a soft "sizzle," as if an electric current had passed through the air, the two of them instantly felt as if their bodies were being pulled by an invisible force, and their consciousness became dizzy.

The next moment, their vision suddenly brightened—

It was no longer the empty hall, but a dilapidated city ruin. Dark clouds filled the sky, and in the distance, the remains of a huge steel structure lay across the broken walls, the air thick with the smell of burning and decay.

Su Ting looked down and saw that his arm had become semi-mechanical, with faint blue light flowing beneath its silver-white shell.

He turned around abruptly: "Dawn?"

Chenxi stood beside him, her tactical gear even more refined than before, with a faintly shimmering red crystal core embedded in her chest.

“This is… another world,” Chenxi whispered. “We are not the only ones who have traveled to this world.”

Before the words were finished, a red light flashed in the sky, and a hovering reconnaissance aircraft sped past overhead, its cold, mechanical voice ringing out:

If you discover any unauthorized entities, please report their identification codes immediately.

"Oh no!" Dawn's expression changed. "This isn't an ordinary wasteland... This is a future era after the failure of the 'Iron Dome Project.' The Dawn Organization once conducted a failed time restart experiment here."

Su Ting's eyes sharpened: "So, we're now in a spacetime node they tried to correct?"

Chapter 1072 Emerging from the Ruins

Just then, a series of rapid footsteps suddenly came from the ruins in the distance.

Two figures dressed in black combat suits rushed out of the ruins.

"Don't move! We're here to help you!" one of them shouted, raising his hands.

"Heh." Chenxi sneered, "How did you find us?"

“We don’t have time to explain too much,” the other man said seriously, “but one thing is certain: you’ve been exposed.”

"Who exposed it?" Su Ting narrowed his eyes.

"Your fluctuations in consciousness were already being tracked when you touched the mirror just now."

Chenxi gritted her teeth: "So, which path does Zero-Seven want to lead us down?"

One of the men in black glanced at the device on his wrist and said urgently, "We can't worry about who set this trap now. If you don't want to get caught, come with us."

Su Ting looked at Chen Xi: "What do you think?"

Chenxi remained unmoved, silently observing the two people before her: "First, answer one question. Which timeline version are you from? Do you believe humanity is still worth saving?"

The man in black was taken aback: "Aren't you the same?"

Chenxi said coldly, "I am not the same. I choose to remember everyone's name."

The man in black's expression cracked for a moment, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.

At that very moment, the ground suddenly collapsed.

A beam of crimson energy tore through the wasteland beneath their feet, forcefully splitting the distance between the three of them!

"They're here!" a man in black shouted. "It's the 'Clearer' drone force! Take cover!"

The explosion rang out with a deafening roar, and sparks flew everywhere.

"It seems we're not the only ones looking for you." A second voice came from the air.

Su Ting looked up—

Three giant combat robots slowly descended from the sky. Each robot was over five meters tall, covered in dark red paint, and had a core crystal embedded in the middle of its chest.

[Target confirmed: Su Ting, Chen Xi. Execute the elimination protocol.]

"Clear my ass!" Ji Yan's voice boomed from behind!

He leaped out of the ruins like lightning, a modified particle oscillator in his hand, and pounced on one of the machines like a wild beast.

Immediately afterwards, Chu Mo's figure appeared on the ruins of the tower, his rifle already switched to high-explosive mode.

"I knew you two wouldn't die." Chu Mo's lips curled into a smile. "Now, shouldn't you tell me something useful? Like—do we really exist in that mirror?"

As Chenxi ran quickly, dodging a collapsed steel beam, he shouted, "They are not just beings, they are the true awakened ones! They are the very origin of this data war!"

"What?!" Ji Yan roared as he slashed at the leg joint of a mecha, sending sparks flying. "So you're saying—we're just 'replicas' now? Or some kind of monster?"

“It wasn’t a copy.” Su Ting’s voice was as steady as a knife. “We were the pioneers who first stepped into this rift of fate. And they… have already been erased by the system.”

Just then, a mechanical puppet that had been destroyed suddenly stood up, its eyes shining with a blinding blue light. Its mechanical arm unfolded into a weapon module, coldly locking onto Su Ting and Chen Xi.

"Wait, wasn't it just—" Before Chu Mo could finish speaking, a familiar figure appeared and used a double-edged dagger to cut open the machine's communication core.

Chapter 1073 A Greater Being Manipulates

It's Lin Su!

“I’ve said it before,” he said, catching his breath after landing, “this game isn’t about eliminating us… it’s about helping us distinguish one another.”

"Distinguish?" Ji Yan looked puzzled. "What do you mean?"

Lin Su raised his gaze to Su Ting: "Now you know why you keep dreaming about that laboratory, why you always feel... that you are being controlled by some greater being. Because 'you' existed long before you were born."

An indescribable ripple of data began to spread through the air.

“We… are samples carried over from the old era,” Chenxi murmured, “we are the failed products of the original version… a batch of experimental subjects that were discarded?”

Number 07's voice suddenly echoed in the void once more:

Main storyline unlocked. Ultimate mission triggered—Find the true time anchor. Completion will break the loop and reset the causal axis.

The scene changes drastically!

The wasteland city vanished, and everyone was transported to a long corridor floating in the starry sky.

At the end of the corridor is a door with an ancient inscription carved on it:

Beyond this door lies the true starting point of all possibilities. Proceed with caution—a wrong choice is irreversible.

"Hello," Su Ting said.

He gazed toward the door, his tone calm, "If we open this door... what will happen? Will we be erased, or will we be able to return to the true 'beginning'?"

No one answered.

"You don't dare to go in." A soft laugh came from behind.

She walked slowly to the door, her finger hovering over the activation panel on one side.

“You said you would remember everyone’s name.” Su Ting stepped forward and stood beside her.

Chenxi nodded: "And you? Do you still remember what I said to you when we first met?"
