The information transmitted by the system poured into Su Mohui's mind like a tide, gradually converging into vivid pictures. In the pictures, the scene went back to when she and Xiaoguang first entered the Sui Ming Kingdom.

At that moment, Xiaoguang had just landed, his consciousness still lingering on the edge of chaos, not yet fully awake. At his most vulnerable moment, that demonic whisper, wrapped in evil power, suddenly poured into his mind, frantically piercing his defenses, trying to completely break them.

Yet, within that seemingly ordinary group of "natives" lay a hidden secret. Two of them had long been secretly manipulated by the power of the restraint system, like puppets. The moment they spotted Xiaoguang, they quietly tampered with the puppet emblem around Xiaoguang's neck.

This also explains why when Su Mohui found Xiaoguang, his accent had been assimilated, his consciousness seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog, and he fell into a semi-hypnotic state.

On the one hand, this is a layer of self-protection that Xiaoguang puts on himself when he stubbornly fights against Whisper; on the other hand, it is a strong proof of the erosion of his power by the restraint system.

From the moment Su Mohui and Xiaoguang began talking to the group of "natives," they had unknowingly stepped into a trap carefully laid by the forces of the Cthulhu system. And Huo Yuan was the first chess piece in this conspiracy!

However, everyone overlooked a key detail: from the perspective of subjective consciousness, Huo Yuan and Suiren were actually two completely different individuals.

The Fire Kite was nothing more than a projection of consciousness that was separated from Suiren's consciousness by the god Cthulhu after he noticed Su Mohui's intention and tried to seize the initiative.

In other words, Suiren's essence and core consciousness still exist.

However, when the forces of the Ke system tried to completely control Suiren, Suiren, the "ancestor of national destiny" from the Xinhua Realm (that is, the small world), with the help of the dual power of the Small Heavenly Dao and the system, burst out with a moment of power at the critical moment, protecting the soul of Suiren of the Suiming Kingdom, so that the forces of the Ke system only deprived him of a part of it.

This also explains why several indigenous people showed up and said inexplicable words such as "The holy tree does not welcome you" before Su Mohui and Xiaoguang got close to the sacred tree.

At that time, Xiao Guang had already keenly noticed something was wrong, so he told Su Mohui that these people wanted to set rules for "outsiders". The so-called "outsiders" they referred to were those humans who were unwilling to follow the gods of Cthulhu!

At that time, although Xiaoguang had noticed something, he did not discover the abnormality hidden in Su Mohui. He could only use his own little tricks secretly to control the actions of the indigenous people without making a sound.

After all, if Su Mohui acted rashly, the Cthulhu gods would instantly notice that her power was suppressed by the laws of this world. This would put them in a desperate situation, and Su Mohui might even be pierced directly into her ears and nose by the iron-browed insects, festering from the inside out and dying!

Seeing this, Su Mohui's thoughts were instantly pulled back to the moment when Zhuanxu's order suddenly became hot -

Those fragmented images, the scene of the sacred tree going crazy when the gods fell, were actually the beginning of the erosion of her spirit by the power of the Cthulhu!

Since then, Su Mohui's behavior began to show some impropriety!

When she met Huo Yuan, she easily believed Huo Yuan's words based on a scar mark of being burned by Zhurong's fire spirit and an ambiguous sentence "suiming fire seed". It was really too hasty.

The second erosion of the power of the Cthulhu occurred when Huo Yuan mentioned the "Night Watch." His words and the blood-red crescent totem on his chest seemed to contain an inexplicable and powerful force!

It wasn't even 2:15 PM yet, but the Holy Tree suddenly went berserk. So much so that when Xiaoguang fell to the ground to save Su Mohui, a cloud of bloody mist exploded within half a meter of them, further evidence of the erosion of the power of the Crimson System.

It was from this moment that Su Mohui's memory began to be quietly tampered with. This also explained why, when she saw the statue crawling out of the tree hole, she subconsciously thought of the Taoist Beidou who had sacrificed his life in this world ten years ago!

As for the third erosion, it was hidden in the process of Beidou Taoist chanting the spell after he climbed out of the tree hole. His spell was mixed with the code words of the power of restraint, quietly tampering with Su Mohui's memory.

At this point, nearly half of Su Mohui's memory had been tampered with. Meanwhile, the system was also not spared, being quietly manipulated by the restraining force.

When Su Mohui fell into a loop and frequently encountered system freezes, that was the outward manifestation of the fierce confrontation between the system and the restraining force.

The power of the K-system is like a surging undercurrent. It cannot completely devour the system, but it can interfere with the frequency of the world band, and then cause the system power to be unbalanced, which also becomes the beginning of the system being gradually replaced!

From then on, the power of the K-series was like a leech attached to her bones, subtly influencing her consciousness without Su Mohui noticing.

However, this impact brought about unexpected chain reactions.

In the reincarnation that Su Mohui had agreed upon with the Chinese gods, those memories and magical instruments that had been sealed away by Su Mohui were used one by one by her under the interference of the power of restraint.

The Rebirth Mirror emanated a mysterious glow, and the Black Fire Silk danced with blazing flames, all of which served as witnesses to this strange experience. But she might not have realized that the memories that subconsciously surfaced were not the result of her own awakening, but rather the contamination of the power of restraint!

But Xiaoguang, like Ji Lingguang, was a man of exceptional intelligence. From the perspective of the Ninth Heaven's Heavenly Dao, they were connected, even two bodies and one soul, possessing a deep bond and tacit understanding.

When Xiaoguang successfully broke through to become a god after overcoming many hardships and obstacles in the destined space, he gained a special ability——

He can use his own original power to achieve a short time-space teleportation with Ji Lingguang. He can not only teleport Ji Lingguang to his own world, but also return himself to where Ji Lingguang is.

Based on this ability, Xiaoguang and Ji Lingguang had an in-depth discussion and carefully planned a series of plans. The birth of the puppet clone was the result of Xiaoguang's ingenious idea!

Even Su Mohui didn't notice that when they appeared in the Sui Ming Kingdom, Xiaoguang had already left a trace of the original power of the puppet core. Then Ji Lingguang properly hid his body and placed his consciousness in that trace of the puppet core.

This clever arrangement perfectly explains why Xiaoguang often falls into the Puppet King's rampage in subsequent cycles. In the original game setting, the Puppet King's form can be seen as Xiaoguang's dark side to some extent.

This form would automatically manifest when his original form was safe from harm. Once someone or something threatened him or Su Mohui, his reaction would become increasingly frantic, as if his sanity had been completely devoured by his anger and desire to protect.

It was for this reason that Xiaoguang took the initiative to bring up the matter of the samsara fire and the judge of Yama Palace before Su Mohui.

Su Mohui came back to her senses from the Rebirth Mirror, raised her head and stared at the young boy Xiaoguang tearing open his sternum and pulling out a piece of bronze key from his beating heart, feeling a pang of pain in her heart.
