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

At the edge of the desert, night fell as dark as ink. The wind still howled in my ears, like some invisible warning.

After leaving the "Origin Site", Su Ting and Eileen proceeded along the only coordinate marked on the map - the last location left by Cheng Yuan, located on the edge of the thirteenth quadrant.

They remained silent until the outline of ruins came into view.

It was a dilapidated steel viaduct, its metallic sheen gleaming coldly in the moonlight. The ground was covered with charred marks, as if it had witnessed an untold battle.

“This… is the signal source he left behind before he disappeared last time,” Eileen said softly.

Su Ting stepped onto the bridge surface, and the metal trembled slightly, as if it might collapse at any moment.

"Why is he waiting for us here?" Su Ting asked.

“He’s not waiting.” Eileen’s eyes were deep. “He’s making plans.”

Suddenly, a surge of electricity rose from under the bridge, followed by the slow formation of a virtual projection—it was Cheng Yuan.

"You've finally arrived." The projected voice was slightly distorted, but its tone conveyed a sense of composure. "I was worried that you would be held up by those 'black robes' for too long."

Su Ting stepped forward. "What exactly do you want? Why did you bring me here?"

Cheng Yuan blinked. "I'm just the one providing the answers. The decision of what you really want to know is up to you."

"Stop beating around the bush!" Eileen interrupted. "What answer are you talking about? Where is the seventh quadrant? Why is Leah there?"

In the video, Cheng Yuan has a slight smile on his lips. "She's always been there. It's just that you weren't ready to face her yet."

He reached out and tapped lightly, and a stream of code suddenly appeared in the air.

“Look carefully.” His tone turned serious. “This is one of the fragments of your erased memories.”

The screen flashed, and the image froze in a closed white space.

Su Ting was stunned.

That's Leah.

Chapter 994 She was being controlled

She was dressed in straitjackets, her hands chained to a metal table, her gaze fixed blankly into the distance. A glowing chip was embedded in her skin on her forehead, seemingly forcibly uploading some kind of data.

The video ended abruptly, leaving Su Ting completely shocked.

"...She's being controlled?" Su Ting murmured.

“It’s not control,” Cheng Yuan sneered. “It’s modification.”

Eileen frowned. "What exactly did you do to the test subject? The core data you mentioned was transmitted using her as a medium?"

"She was part of our original plan," Cheng Yuan said slowly, "but you... you deviated from the original trajectory."

“All I know is that she’s human,” Su Ting said through gritted teeth, “not some kind of experimental subject.”

"But your relationship has caused the system to become disordered," Cheng Yuan replied calmly, "which is why so many variables have been created."

Just then, heavy footsteps came from the distance of the bridge, like iron dragging across the earth.

"They're here." Eileen drew her energy gun from her waist and pointed it into the darkness. "Looks like you're not fighting alone."

“I won’t let them stop you from seeing her.” Cheng Yuan’s projected figure began to flicker. “But before you see her, you need to do one thing.”

As soon as he finished speaking, several figures appeared at the end of the ruins in the distance.

Soldiers dressed in gray combat uniforms lined up in rows, their faces obscured by helmets, but holding state-of-the-art pulse rifles in their hands.

The man in the middle raised his arm, aiming his gun precisely at Su Ting.

"Halt." The man ordered in a low voice, "You have been classified as individuals with abnormal behavior. Immediately remove your equipment and undergo isolation procedures."

Eileen scoffed, "Such a standard line."

Su Ting stepped forward half a step to block her way, his eyes fixed on the captain-level figure opposite him.

"who are you?"

The man raised his head, lifted the helmet visor, and revealed a face that bore a striking resemblance to Su Ting.

"My name is Su Chen." He stared at him for a moment, then softly uttered, "I am one of your replacements."

The air seemed to freeze for a moment.

"What did you say?"

"Do you think you're a unique individual?" Su Chen slowly raised his right hand. "But do you know that in the system, there are at least fifty simulated versions of consciousness like yours? We are trained to adapt to all kinds of possibilities, and the ultimate goal is to prepare for the arrival of this juncture."

He paused and continued:

"Now, I am ordered to reintegrate you into the main storyline—give up resistance, or you will disappear like the others."

"Sorry," Su Ting said with a cold smile, "I don't like the feeling of being replaced."

Eileen grabbed his arm abruptly and warned in a low voice, "Wait! Is he telling the truth? Or is this another bait?"

Cheng Yuan's voice came from the left and right: "You decide for yourself."

Just then, a thunderstorm ripped across the sky, and then, on the distant horizon, a giant tower quietly appeared.

The black, angular building, like fangs thrust out from an abyss, was closing in on them.

The light at the top of the tower flickered, and seven rotating halos could be vaguely seen surrounding it, each representing a dimension of consciousness.

“That’s the Tower of the End.” Cheng Yuan’s voice grew even lower. “Lia is inside.”

"But the prerequisite for entering is to defeat your instance."

As they were speaking, three red signal flares suddenly lit up in the sky.

A glint of silver flashed in Su Chen's eyes: "Begin the suppression operation."

Chapter 995 Radio Wave Scramblers

The next second, gunshots rang out, and the war reignited!

Laser beams swept across the ruins, and bullets roared, shattering steel beams.

Eileen rolled to dodge a pulse grenade, then quickly got up and threw a radio wave disruptor with her backhand. "Do you even have time to think about how to solve a problem?"

Su Ting stared at the other "self" rushing towards him, his pupils slightly contracting.

“No need to overthink it,” he said coldly. “I just want to know which one is the real me.”

Su Chen grinned, "Then let's settle this with our fists."

The two stared at each other for a second, then suddenly leaped out of the battle circle, colliding head-on and unleashing a tremendous energy shockwave.

Dust billows, light and shadow intertwine—a fateful clash has officially begun...

[Battle in Progress | Target Confirmed: Su Ting VS Su Chen (Bionic 037)]

[Background Activation | 60% of Tower of the End Permissions Verification Passed]

"Lia, I will see you!" Su Ting roared amidst the fierce battle, "No matter how many 'me's' lie ahead of me!"

In the distance, the wind and sand carry fragments of memories, stirring up a whisper that doesn't belong to this world.

Thunder roared through the air, and a fierce wind whipped up debris, bringing the battle to a fever pitch in an instant.

Eileen rolled to dodge an incendiary grenade, then with a stomp of her foot, her tactical boots unleashed an anti-gravity propulsion, propelling her like an arrow onto the platform. She hurled a flashbang towards the center of the advancing ranks, the burst of light momentarily suppressing the visual systems of several soldiers.

"Three seconds!" she shouted into the channel, "Interfere with my consciousness waves!"

Su Ting didn't respond; all his attention was focused on the person in front of him who had an almost identical face.

Su Chen also took to the air, his hands crossed in front of his chest, and a faint mechanical outline appeared behind him, like a data exoskeleton rapidly forming, unfolding a pair of metal wings in the air.

The moment the two collided, it was as if the entire space trembled, and a series of arcs of electricity and a roaring sound of tearing airflow burst forth!

"You're such an idiot." Su Chen sneered as he blocked Su Ting's right hook. "Is it worth it for someone who's no longer human?"

“I don’t care if she’s still human or not,” Su Ting retorted through gritted teeth. “She’s waiting for me there.”

Fists clashed with glove, sparks flying. They were incredibly fast, each punch carrying the destructive power amplified by the energy feedback device, leaving spiderweb-like cracks in the ground.

"You think you can defeat me?" Su Chen laughed mockingly. "I am a version designed to defeat 'you'. All your weaknesses are written in my program."

“What a pity.” Su Ting’s eyes were so sharp they seemed to pierce through the void. “I am not a model in a program; I am a living, breathing being.”

After saying this, he suddenly kicked Su Chen in the stomach, and as the latter retreated, he suddenly opened his palm and a burst of compressed electromagnetic energy erupted.

The explosive impact sent the opponent flying, crashing into and breaking a massive reinforced concrete beam.

Eileen's voice came through the channel: "Don't forget, the Tower of the End has already started!"

“I know!” Su Ting turned to look in the direction of the tower, and saw that the seven halos had begun to rotate slowly, and the light was becoming more and more intense.

Just then, the ground suddenly shook, and several automatic defense turrets rose up from beneath the ruins, their red lights locking onto the area where the two were located.

"Target locked, initiating elimination mode." The cold, mechanical voice echoed across the battlefield.

Chapter 996 Physical Injuries

Su Ting gritted his teeth, let out a low growl, and turned to face Su Chen: "If you don't stop me, I'll just punch my way through."
