Void Jigsaw Puzzle

Guo Ling looked at Tan Ping overhead and shouted, "Hey, are you going to tear her in half? If she's gone, how are you going to unlock this central water supply system?"

Hydrogen Ao was slightly disturbed by these words, and Carbon Ping immediately floated towards Helium Yi.

Qian Ao immediately regained his composure and shouted angrily, "If she's torn in two, I'll destroy the roof of this reservoir! Can a mere code stop us?"

Upon hearing this, Carbon Crown quickly said, "Lord Hydrogen Ao, absolutely not. The structure underneath is extremely complex. If it is destroyed, all of us will drown. Moreover, its material is extremely strong. We cannot destroy it with any tools or weapons on this planet!"

Hydron Sa and Hydron Nian said in unison: "Stop interfering with Lord Hydron Ao!"

As expected, after being interrupted again by Tan Guan, Tan Ping was completely controlled by He Yi. He Yi pulled her to his side and gently placed her on the pipe.

Tan Ping's eyes were filled with fear, but she was still very excited to be able to regain this down-to-earth feeling.

The pipe was a bit hard and a bit cold though.

Zhong Chenmu stepped forward and said softly, "Mayor Tan Ping, don't worry, we will protect you."

Tan Ping looked up at the handsome and tall young man and said with a wry smile: "I'm not the mayor anymore, but thank you for saving me."

"We'll talk about introductions later. All you need to know is that we are Guo Ling's best friends and partners."

"That's great......"

Before he could finish his words, Tan Ping felt a force pulling him inside and he flew backwards involuntarily.

"Ahhhh!"

At this time, Zhong Chenmu hurriedly shouted: "Sister Tan Ping, please always firmly believe in one thing in your heart, that is, you only have a physical form!"

As he spoke, he shouted to Fan Ting beside him, "Come with me to hold her back!"

Although Fan Ting didn't fully understand Zhong Chenmu's intention, she immediately obeyed. The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, dragged the carbon duckweed that had just left the surface of the pipe.

Tan Ping had no other choice but to silently repeat in her heart: "I am a person of flesh and blood, I am a person of flesh and blood..."

The situation changed immediately. Her feet had been pulled off the surface of the pipe by the hydrogen aura, but she was pulled back by Zhong Chenmu and Fan Ting.

The tearing and pulling feeling in her body also weakened a lot.

It seemed that the influence of both Hydrogen Ao and Helium B on her had been reduced a lot, but because of the role of Zhong Chenmu and Fan Ting on this side, the balance of power between the two sides had become completely unbalanced, and the balance of victory tilted towards Zhong Chenmu and others, and also towards the direction she hoped for.

Tan Ping stood on the pipe again, still in shock, and asked, "What happened?"

Zhong Chenmu said, "Although Hydrogen Ao is powerful, he only exists in a virtual form. What you see now is merely an illusion. His control over this virtual form and its destructive power are likely unmatched in this universe—except, of course, for Lord Hei Yi. If you were a physical being, he wouldn't have any real impact or harm on you, though his overwhelming presence would still be terrifying. It's a shame that Brother Guo Ling seems to have already taught you the ability of 'virtual and real duality,' and you transformed into a virtual form just now when you infiltrated here. Since you've only mastered it so recently, your transition may not be complete. That is, even when you're in physical form, a certain amount of your virtual form remains, and this portion is controlled by Hydrogen Ao. Of course, thanks to Lord Hei Yi, he helped you resist this formidable force. Once you truly master the ability to switch between these two forms, and achieve the same level of mastery as we do, there's no need to fear him. Unless you're within the Hydrogen Clan's territory, he won't be able to cause you any real harm or impact."

Tan Ping nodded, not quite understanding: "I understand..."

Sure enough, when she turned around and looked at the angry Hydron Ao from afar, she found that if she eliminated the fear in her heart and firmly believed that she was a mortal body, she could hardly feel his terrifying pull.

Guo Ling, who was overhead, saw this scene and immediately patted his head: "Yes! That's it! I was wondering if I missed some details just now!"

He immediately turned to Zhang Chuyu and said, "Remember, right now, you only have this body, this visible and tangible body. Don't think about it, don't try to recall how we got in from up there just now. Do you understand? If you don't want to die, remember this!"

Zhang Chuyu was stunned, not fully understanding what Guo Ling meant. However, he thought disdainfully, "Only the body? I don't know. I once lived a life with only the body..."

Seeing that Qian Ao's efforts to pull Tan Ping over had failed, Tan Guan, though unclear about what had happened, understood that his proud guest had been humiliated and must be feeling very bad. He didn't know how to comfort her, let alone what to do next.

"Just don't blow up our central water supply system, or I'll be damned..."

At that moment, he even flinched a little. When Tan Jia had originally brought these guests to him, he hadn't intended to cooperate so closely, but the effects of their stimulants and sedatives were too intoxicating, leaving him unable to stop. After experiencing it twice, he had more leverage in Tan Jia's hands and fell into an involuntary descent.

However, approving them to unlock the central water supply system and pour in stimulants and sedatives was the biggest compromise he could make. After all, this was the heart of Houkun City and the core P1 planet. He couldn't imagine the consequences of completely destroying it.

As he was thinking, Hydrogen Ao spoke to him, "Chief Tan Guan, I believe our priority plan has failed. If you are unable to bring Tan Ping here and force her to reveal her password, we must immediately implement a backup plan."

"Backup plan?"

"The group of people we tamed with tranquilizers earlier can now be allowed to come down and work."

Tan Guan's heart skipped a beat; the thing he was most worried about had happened.

So he asked, "Well...if they all come down, won't it be a bit crowded here?"
