Xiao Tao's face was full of OwO. She crossed her arms and looked confused. "These questions are all beyond the scope..."

Looking at Alice, who was overwhelmed by the excessive amount of information, Xiao Tao turned to look at the machine beside her and asked Danrito in confusion, "So, the self that Alice-chan mentioned is still in this machine?"

"It's easier to handle because it's inside this machine." Danrito snapped his fingers. "It's like a prisoner causing trouble in jail. This cartridge has become the prison for that person. I used my administrator privileges to create an air wall to trap her. Now she's huddled in a corner of this gaming world."

"Hmm... Although it sounds incredible, but considering that it was you who tinkered with this Creator God, it's not so hard to accept~"

Xiao Tao touched her head and said, "Wait, since the Alice who looks exactly like Alice now..."

"Oh, she calls herself Key."

"Key? What a strange name." Xiao Tao looked thoughtful. However, when Xiao Tao usually pondered this, she was either wondering why she had ascended to the Dragon Blade or why she hadn't successfully landed the Ender Pearl. It was hard to connect this with her serious thoughts. "So, since the key is imprisoned in this game development area, and the data inside is being loaded into the cartridge..."

Danrito blinked: "It will..."

The two people standing opposite each other looked at the direction of the blank cartridge inserted in the machine at the same time. Alice had almost finished the cartridge, but everyone forgot about the appearance of the key. As a result, they accidentally left the key in the game development field and forgot that the cartridge was still inputting data into the machine.

"Oops!"

Danrito reached out to pull out the blank cassette, but the data transfer speed of the cassette was even faster than his hand. By the time Danrito stretched out his hand, the blank cassette had already emitted a light indicating that the input was completed.

Ordinary game cartridges naturally will not produce the Collapse Core. The one that evolved into the Collapse Core, 'Dragon Knight Hunter Z', gave birth to the Grafat Collapse after devouring a patient with the corresponding virus, that is, it was born after devouring the girlfriend of the brave player.

In other words, a cartridge made purely for gaming purposes would never have a collapse source, unless - a collapse source created out of thin air entered it, and this cartridge happened to meet the material standards of a knight cartridge.

So, who made this cassette?

Instantly, a glow of evolution erupted from the cartridge, and the blank cartridge flew from the socket, dodging Danrito's attempt to pull it out. The next moment, the suspended blank cartridge rapidly changed color, its outer shell changing from silver-white to dark blue, while the game's cover art was engraved on the controller.

On the screen, the dark demon king, holding a magic sword, stood on the destroyed castle. The huge title text was written in retro Gothic English:

The Legend of the Final Goddess Sword 2

"Hey hey hey hey!! My game!" Yuzu's reaction was the most intense. She pointed anxiously at the game cartridge floating in the air, "It, it floated up after it was completed! But why is this cover different from what I designed?"

"It's probably because the characteristics of the Collapse Source that occupies it have changed the game."

Danrito tutted his words, "Now things are getting a little more complicated."

The cassette floating in the air shrank its light, and the orange virus flew out of the cassette, condensing into the shape of a key and falling in front of them.

"It's exactly like Alice!" Xiaolu's eyes widened: "Except that Alice doesn't have that cold expression..."

"It must be red eyes." Xiao Tao swallowed nervously and completed the second half of Xiao Lu's sentence.

"Because after the data transfer, she's the highest-ranked operator in the cartridge, so the shackles are automatically unlocked..." Danrito quickly buckled the driver around his waist, "Everyone, disperse!"

"Perhaps I should thank you for giving me this body." He clenched his fists, feeling the real touch of his skin against his nails. His hair fell behind his waist, and he could feel it against his neck. The friction of his clothes, the feel of the air he breathed, the touch of the earth beneath his feet—Key maintained a sense of hostility, yet inevitably felt a sense of freshness in these new sensations.

Key's red eyes gleamed slightly. "However, the fact that you are my enemy still remains in my progress."

Danrito's hands clasped the two cassettes, still chatting leisurely with Key. "Why? Because I stopped you from destroying the world? By the way, could you explain the meaning of 'princess'? I really don't like you people who like to tell riddles."

“…You don’t need to know.”

Key's hand condensed into an electromagnetic cannon, and Danrito quickly inserted his own cartridge, but before he could pull the upgrade lever, the electromagnetic cannon had already opened fire - the target was the wall of the game development department.

He fired at the moment it formed. Although the power was only at the minimum level of the electromagnetic gun, it was enough to destroy the weak wall - Key called this move the "Iai Cannon".

110. Daily rampage begins

"Hmph...want to escape?"

Danrito unzipped his belt, "Grade X, Transform!"

Level Up!

Mighty Jump! Mighty Kick! Mighty Action X!

I get!

Harmony, Mastery, Exceed!

Alchemy player!

Yisi company rescue three devices

It was still the familiar and reassuring dual-use card effect. The moment the transformation was completed, Danrito flicked the medicine bottle on the cassette with his right hand, and without stopping, he chased out from the hole in the wall that Key had broken.

"Wow! Where did Danrito and the others go?"

Xiao Tao ran to the cave entrance anxiously to look around. What she could see was that after Key jumped out of the room, he did not immediately start wreaking havoc, doing the kind of destructive things that the Collapse Body loved to do after awakening. Instead, he moved forward and began to escape from Danrito's pursuit with his own mobility.

Danrito pressed the button on the driver's stand: "Scene change!"

9五零⒈八0九0㈨

Stage selcet!

The game field rapidly expanded around Danrito's body, enveloping Key as he attempted to escape. Using his own cartridge, "All-Around Sports X," numerous game items and bricks appeared on the surrounding field. Danrito leaped up on one foot, knocking a brick away and absorbing the energy within it into his body!

"High-speed!"

Danrito's steps became swift, he moved nimbly among the crowd of students around him, lifted up the skirts of countless girls, leaving the confused female students screaming shyly, and quickly approached Key!

"Spit out the game cartridge! As a game administrator, I won't allow anyone to smuggle the cartridge!"

"——Do you think I will give it to you if you tell me?"

Key caught a glimpse of Danrito getting a strange coin item by pushing the bricks, and his speed suddenly increased. He jumped up and hit a chocolate-like brick.

"Liquidation!"

The mysterious energy item immediately entered Key's body. This was the rule Danrito had set within the game realm—as long as the rules of the game realm were followed, even enemies could be strengthened through the game's methods. The knights must have fully experienced this when they fought the Destruction-Type monster.

As if possessed by the Bio Knight, Key's body immediately turned into a liquid body that could not be hit by ordinary attacks. Danrito's palm, which was moving forward at high speed, missed her body and passed through Key's body, leaving only a hand full of wet liquid.

"Hmm?" Danrito was stunned. "The ability to transform into liquid form... did I update this? Oh, I did!"

Remembering how, after restoring the power-ups that had been controlled by a certain green time-stopping knight and a certain out-of-print uncle, he had also conveniently stuffed all the previously hidden abandoned versions into the game, Danrito slapped his forehead and said, "Oh no, I've screwed myself!"

It's a trap, but it's still necessary to chase. Since speeding up isn't going to help much, Danrito simply pulls out his gashacon destroyer, a weapon that can directly smash bricks and obtain the items within. Danrito labels it as a "weapon that can crush everything," but if you really want to argue about whether this thing can "crush everything"... that's picking a fight with him!

"I'll knock!" Dan Lidou knocked the bricks in front of him with the hammer in his hand, and the bricks immediately broke into pieces, and a coin immediately appeared. However, this time, this energy item was not a buff to add to itself, but a debuff item for the opponent!

"Dark!"

Key, struggling to escape, was immediately enveloped in darkness, unable to tell east from west. Danrito's voice rang out from within the obscuring darkness: "I understand now. You're planning to go to the 'ruins,' right?"

Unable to tell the direction, Key's pace slowed down obviously. Seeing that Key's pace was trapped, Dan Lidou estimated that the time for the liquid props was about to expire, and he couldn't help but get excited again.

"When I woke Alice up earlier, I noticed that there were still quite a few things deep within the 'ruins' that hadn't been awakened yet. I was still wondering what they were a few days ago, but after you created those mechanical soldiers in the field of game development, I understood that it was these mechanical spherical soldiers that you wanted to awaken, right?"

Danrito narrowed his eyes. "When free to create without any prompting, people always choose what they are most familiar with. Those mechanical spheres must be the weapons of war you are most familiar with. You are so eager to escape, and your destination is so clear, how could I not predict what you are going to do?"

"...You are indeed a dangerous person."

Key didn't seem to have given up struggling completely. She fired the electromagnetic cannon indiscriminately at the surroundings, making several holes in the building nearby and blowing out the members of the ancient artifact research society who were living inside.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?! Are you going to let us study it?"

The nerd with glasses stood up from the rubble. "Before, the game development department made a fuss, which was fine, but what's going on today? They're even tearing down my house!"

Key ignored the shouting of the club students. Her identity as a source of collapse came in handy at this moment - an Internet cable socket was right in front of her.

Without caring where the socket led to, Key took two steps forward, transformed into a collapse-source virus and drilled in, leaving Dan Lidou behind him with a look of astonishment.

"Can this give her a way to survive?!"

Taking two steps forward, Danrito also chased into the network port, leaving the members of the Ancient Artifacts Research Society whose activity room was destroyed in the explosion to cry in the spot, and reported to the thousand-year-old seminar in a tearful manner.

"Wuwuwu...Do you care or not? Do you care or not?"

The Millennium Glasses students, all in tears, gathered around the seminar table. Surrounded by them, Yuuka looked embarrassed. "Calm down, calm down... Please explain what you're talking about. You're all talking at once, and all I can hear is that your activity room was bombed..."

"Yuuka, leave this to me."

Noah, a member of the poetry-loving seminar group with long straight white hair and known to be a member of the Millennium Lowly Maiden, walked over and said to several students from the research club with a gentle smile, "Can you tell me about this?"

After a few minutes.

"Thanks so much, Noah..."

Yuuka let out a breath. "I couldn't understand a word they said when they were all talking at once. Especially since they were students who didn't socialize much, their conversation was completely incoherent."

"If you sort out their words, you can still understand them. It's just that the word order is wrong." Noah chuckled. "They said that a small girl with very long hair used a railgun to bombard their activity room. Then she turned into a burst of orange light and disappeared. Then, a man in a purple armored bodysuit chased them. His face was lost, and he also turned into an orange light and disappeared."

"This... is something I've never heard of." Noah asked in confusion, "Yuuka, do you know anything?"

111. Do androids dream of electric sheep?

"She has very long hair and uses a railgun as a weapon..." Yuka's answer was almost on the verge of coming out: "Isn't that Alice from the game development department?"

"Alice? I seem to have some impression of her..." Noah recalled the student file. "She seems to be a new member of the game development department?"

"Come to think of it, the club the Game Development Department robbed last time was also the Ancient Artifact Research Club, right? No wonder the Game Development Department's name was mentioned in that commotion just now."

Yuka now understood why the members of the Ancient Artifacts Research Club had been so excited to mention the name of the 'Game Development Department'. Although they didn't know that Alice was also in the Game Development Department, the previous encounter was indeed enough to make them so angry.

"But, could that kid really do something like bombing the club with a railgun and then running away?" Yuuka asked in disbelief. "Last time I visited the game development department, Alice seemed so well behaved. She wouldn't do something like that, right?"

"But, there wouldn't be another person in the entire millennium who could use a railgun as a weapon, right?" Noah picked up his water glass. "That's a weapon the Engineering Department developed for installation on spacecraft. It weighs over 500 kilograms, so not everyone can lift it... So, Alice is also born with extraordinary strength?"

"Hmm...I'm worried, so I better go to the game development department."

Yuka stood up and headed towards the game development department. Before leaving, she reminded him, "Noah! I'll have a meeting later, so help me start it!"

Filled with doubts, Yuuka trotted over to the game development department. The door to the activity room was wide open, and the room was a mess. But the most eye-catching thing was a huge hole in the wall.

"What on earth is... happening?"

Alice, who was usually the most lively person, sat on the sofa dejectedly, as if she had lost her soul. Xiaotao and Xiaolu seemed to be surrounding Alice, persuading her about something, while Yuzu was sitting in the box of ripe mangoes, shivering, completely unaware of what to do.

"Alice?" Yuuka walked into the activity room, looking at the scene in front of her in confusion. "I received a complaint from the Ancient Artifact Research Club. Someone used an electromagnetic cannon to destroy their activity room. But what's going on now?"

"It's Yuuka the Demon King!"

"Who is Yuuka the Demon King?"

Yuka replied with some embarrassment, while Xiaolu acted as the most organized explainer among the three and told Yuka the current situation.

"Green, you said... someone like Alice appeared, stole the cassette you were going to use for the competition, and used a railgun to punch a hole in the wall and escape. Now that sir named Danrito is chasing after him..."

Yuuka frowned at the end of the sentence and fixed her gaze on Alice, who was still sitting on the sofa, and the electromagnetic cannon leaning against the wall of the activity room. "Both the person and the weapon are here. Could it be that they are really identical clones?"

Yuuka didn't quite understand what was happening, but she wasn't the only one at the seminar who knew about it. Alice's identity had long been known to the seminar's president, Chozuki Rion.

Inside the seminar office, the stern-looking seminar chairperson, Tiao Yue Liyin, stood. Dressed in a sharp black suit, with a figure that looked too mature to be a student, and flowing black hair, those unfamiliar with her often perceived her as a mature, shrewd, and aloof chairperson. At that moment, her face was as cold as frost.

"Initially, I only allowed the Truth Society to add Alice's name to the student files because you could guarantee complete control of her actions. You didn't really think that the Truth Society could bypass the strict student origin authority without you, did you?"

Liyin slammed the table, making a bang.

"And now? That android is clearly on the verge of losing control! I can't continue with your ridiculous training plan. After all, relying on something as uncertain as 'emotions' to control that dangerous creation is the most unreliable thing from the very beginning!"

"Don't say that, Xiao Liyin."

On the holographic screen before Liyin, the all-knowing Takamine no Hana continued to smile softly. "My cameras can confirm that Alice is still intact in the game development department. However, the identical being that for unknown reasons split from Alice's body has now penetrated the Millennium Network. Ah—Mr. Danrito is tracking her."

"It's been drilled into a thousand-year-old network?" Liyin's eyes widened. "Shouldn't it be a piece of code that can't leave the android's body?"

"Hmm~ To be precise, it should be like this."

Himari's eyes looked to her side, and this change in her eyes made Liyin frown: "Himari, what are you looking at?"

qun㈨五0①㈧090九

"Just a new member of the Paranormal Investigation Department. She clearly needs some attention." Himari's expression softened slightly, perhaps having seen something that put her at ease. But then she composed herself and turned back to the anxious-looking President Liyin. "That separated part must have been part of Alice's life. If my theory is correct, that part is the key that transformed Alice from a cute junior into a world-destroying weapon."

Himari leaned forward slightly. "Well, now that this key part has been separated, the rest is a good thing, isn't it?"

"..."

Liyin's eyes froze for a moment. "But, how can you ensure that there are no remaining parts?"
