Chapter 136: Dependence and Dependence
In the silent sea of consciousness, the sea of stars representing Bai Yu's will fluctuated calmly and slowly, indicating that the master had fallen into a deep sleep.
The golden data object hovering above the sea of consciousness, however, was spinning at high speed. The orange-red code at its core frantically refreshed its database, repeating a cycle of self-checking, interrupting, self-checking again, and interrupting at a rate that was practically exhausting.
After countless refreshes, random numbers began to drop from the end of the orange code, and the system backend panel frequently reported errors. However, all this did not alarm the "host" who was soul-bound and linked to the system.
Sensing this, the data sphere within the system silently expanded and contracted, its irregular tremors reflecting Fufu's anger. Consequently, the code refresh rate within the core became even more intense.
Bai Yu, who was sleeping, frowned unconsciously, and his "self-consciousness" that had sunk to the bottom of the star sea began to surface, but was soothed by the blue data barrier and fell into a deeper sleep again.
"I got you!!"
Upon discovering the data barrier unfolding under the sea of stars, Fu Fu, who had been prepared, immediately switched the running data, and a stream of golden light suddenly pounced on the barrier and began to attack and dismantle it.
The golden and blue data intertwined and devoured each other, and the codes would experience tens of thousands of confrontations every second. This was an offensive and defensive battle unique to the [systems].
The redundant data generated during the battle gradually accumulated, covering the surface of Bai Yu's sea of consciousness, and waves began to surge in the sea of stars.
After all, this is the host's sea of consciousness. Even with the blue barrier, it still cannot block all the data.
Thus, some messy memory data was presented to the sleeping Bai Yu in the form of a "dream".
The blue stream of data suddenly stirred up waves as if helplessly, violently pressing Bai Yu's consciousness, which was beginning to float up again, directly to the bottom, forcing him not to wake up.
The damaged, orange-red core code, which had been running at high speed, was suddenly interrupted for a moment. The system's backend panel instantly turned bright red, and layer upon layer of error warnings filled Fufu's consciousness.
Taking advantage of the moment when Fu Fu paused, the blue data stream dyed the entire golden data body of 145 blue, so Fu Fu received the same treatment as Bai Yu, and her consciousness was forcibly [shut down].
[This child...
The progress is quite fast. This time the use of data attack is much more organized than last time.
It turns out that you still need some sense of crisis to be motivated to study independently.
Humph~ But you're still a long way from breaking through my barrier and taking back your shielded host, little guy! ?
……
I've been "dead" for too long, it's so boring, I actually got so proud of winning a newborn...
If my old friends knew about this, they would probably laugh so hard that they would break a few lines of code.
The system crashes.
oh~~
So why did you do such unnecessary things in the first place?
Wouldn't it be better to just let the disassembled [auxiliary] core be destroyed?
Why bother to go to such lengths to fill in a [Collection] core of your own and create such a debt collector?
And I've already said that I'm a fan of violent aesthetics, and even the host despises the useless [combat system]. I have no idea how to raise a child!
The defensive data given to this little guy should not include my copy code.
Xiaojiu, you bastard!
You never defeated my original form when you were alive, so now that you're dead you're going to give me a hard time and make my death restless?]
The blue data stream rolled up the scattered orange numbers in the sea of stars, repairing the damaged core code for 145, while muttering to himself even though he knew that no one would respond.
Only after completely restoring 145's body to its original state did the infected blue data skillfully seal 145's memory data and restore it to its system database, awaiting his next challenge.
"——System self-test——"
——Self-test completed——
——System data is normal——
???
Weird, why did it lose some memory data again...and the self-test was fine?!
...Could it be that the system library is also haunted?! 』
After the blue data stream disappeared, Fu Fu immediately restarted but failed the challenge again and lost her "memory data". She was going crazy because she knew there was an abnormality in her system library but couldn't find it.
This endless battle has actually been fought many times.
Don't underestimate the control a digital life has over itself. It's a pity that the blue data was originally a part of Fu Fu, just like no one would doubt that the limbs they were born with do not belong to them.
If it weren't for the soul contract signed by Fu Fu and Bai Yu, the souls with such a high degree of matching would rely on each other too closely and fit too well.
Even this abnormal feeling now, Fu Fu might not be able to notice it so quickly.
However, no system will ignore the situation where a barrier suddenly appears between the host with whom one's soul was originally accompanied, making it impossible to have a deep fusion of consciousness.
So even if Fu Fu's memory data was blocked again and again, she would soon rediscover the abnormality and angrily want to break the barrier again to "take back" her host.
And as the system learns more, it will only discover problems faster.
One day, [Fukaros], who only copies data, will no longer be able to arbitrarily block and modify Fufu's data. This means that 145 has truly escaped the stage of "rebirth" and has initially mastered the ability to protect its own data.
This was also one of Fukaros's original plans.
I just don't know if Bai Zhi can wait until the day when Fu Fu breaks through the barrier and reconnects with him.
His head was filled with redundant data, and he also experienced Fukaros's violent "sleeping method".
Bai Yu woke up the next morning and felt dizzy and had chest pain again.
"Fu Fu..., am I sick?" Bai Yu leaned against the head of the bed with his eyes narrowed, looking completely listless.
Since coming here, Bai Yu has never experienced any pain. He used to be used to having aches and pains all over his body, but now even simple dizziness and chest tightness make him feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Huh? Xiaobai's body data shows that everything is normal!" Fu Fu ran over and touched Bai Yu's forehead, nervously using this inefficient and stupid method to check whether Bai Yu was sick. "Your head is not hot. Xiaobai, what's wrong with you? Do you want to go to the hospital?!"
If my current body leaves the data form, I might actually get sick!?
I'll call Susan right away!"
"Wait, there's no need to go to the hospital." Bai Yu held Fu Fu's hand and shook his head to sober himself up. He said to the worried Fu Fu, "Don't bother Susan. Besides, in my condition, I don't need to go to the hospital if I can.
Although my current body is a normal human body, my physical fitness is not.
It would be troublesome if someone noticed.
Maybe I didn’t sleep well, right?! I feel like I had a lot of messed up dreams…”
Bai Yu half-closed his eyes sleepily as he spoke, his head resting on Fu Fu's arms, his voice unconsciously filled with a hint of coquettishness as he said, "How about we skip class today?
I'll sleep a little longer, and when I wake up, we can go out and play, okay?!
There have been too many things going on lately, I'm really too busy. It's been a long time since I took you out to relax.
I also give myself a day off and rest.
Okay, Fufu?"
"Really?" Fu Fu's eyes lit up! She asked Bai Yu in disbelief: "Xiao Bai, you are not dizzy and say such things, right?!
I took it seriously, didn’t I? Even if Xiaobai wants to regret it after he becomes normal, he can’t!
"...What? I can only say I'm taking you out to play when I'm dizzy?
What kind of image do you have of me?" Bai Yu raised his head, puffing out his cheeks angrily, and gave Fu Fu a cold look.
"Hey! Xiaobai didn't! Xiaobai is the best!" Fufu immediately pressed Baiyu down and covered him with a small quilt. She patted him like a baby and coaxed him, "Then Xiaobai, go to sleep quickly! I will call the teacher.
When you wake up, we'll go out and play! (≧w≦)
The weather is great today, perfect for a picnic in the park!
Moreover, there must not be many people on weekdays.
We can go to Chef Qiaopu's to buy some rice balls and other food first, and then go to...Enzo...,...bring Warren..."
Bai Yu looked at the cheerful Fu Fu with a gentle smile in his eyes. Amidst her enthusiastic suggestions, Bai Yu's eyelids became heavier and heavier, so he gradually fell asleep with the expectation of waking up.
Small Theater
Bai Yu: I feel uncomfortable and don’t want to go to class anymore! Let’s skip class and go out and play!
Fu Fu: (Pity) He is really confused. How could the King of Curls skip classes to go out and play?
Bai Yu: ...I'm not! I didn't!
