Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

"Is it inside this simulated palace...?"

Ye Ge stroked his chin and asked, "Do you know where the entrance to the secret room where Su Yanling is staying is?"

Fei Yue shook her head: "We don't know either. At that time, we were already under the control of Yang Chenxiang, and it's said that only the emperors of the Spirit Demon Clan throughout history knew the entrance to that secret chamber..."

"Really? That makes things easier." Ye Ge chuckled upon hearing this, turning to Bai Xue Ling: "Ling Ling, do you know where the entrance is?"

Bai Xueling paused for a moment, then softly replied, "Yes, I know."

"?" Both Chi Ling and Fei Yue were taken aback.

"Moreover, I roughly know what the gene company wants to get from Yanling..." Bai Xueling clenched her fists and bit her lip.

......

Gene company.

A grand room.

The President of the Light leaned back behind his desk, in front of which was a huge system panel.

The panel displays at least a hundred virtual cards, and the interface itself resembles a stamp album.

Qilin, Phoenix, Bai Ze, Yinglong, Tengshe, Tianma, Nine-tailed Fox...

Zhu Yan, Gu Diao, Ya Yu, Jiu Ying, Kui Niu, Zhu Long, Nine-Headed Serpent...

Some of these virtual cards already have a checkmark on them.

Some haven't...

The top eight cards.

Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise.

Qiongqi√, Taotie√, Taowu√, Chaos.

Current task progress: 89%

The guild master narrowed his eyes slightly.

Finally, it's almost finished...

......

Mingcheng.

Gao Shenxue was sitting with a dozen or so Mingcheng technicians at the city center system's computers, upgrading the city's network defense firewall.

A middle-aged man who looked somewhat like Jiang Xiaoming stood behind them.

He is the city lord of Mingcheng, and also Jiang Xiaoming's father, Jiang Renkuan.

"That's truly amazing..."

Jiang Renkuan couldn't help but sigh.

Gao Shenxue truly deserves to be called the number one genius scientist of the human race!

At such a young age, they have already mastered such advanced technology. It is not impossible for the future technological level of the human race to surpass that of the demi-human race.

Of course, Chiang Jen-kuan knew that his son had once had a crush on Kao Shen-hsueh.

Tsk... Now it seems his big, silly son really dared to dream...

"almost."

Gao Shenxue said calmly, "If any enemy virus tries to invade again, you can use the program I just set up to defend against it."

"Yes, yes, yes..." The dozen or so technicians were very excited. They were as if they had just experienced an earth-shattering battle, and they were the witnesses to this battle.

Outsiders certainly couldn't understand it, but as insiders, they certainly knew how remarkable everything Gao Shenxue had done was.

A virus powerful enough to paralyze an entire city's systems was completely resolved by Gao Shenxue within half an hour.

It's unbelievable!

[Beep beep...]

At this moment, a "letter" icon suddenly popped up in the lower right corner of the city system's main computer.

There was a red and white capsule design on the seal of the letter.

Gao Shenxue's calm and clear eyes changed slightly, and she immediately said, "Everyone, leave this room immediately!"

"...Huh?" Jiang Renkuan was stunned for a moment.

"Hurry!" Gao Shenxue rarely used a stern commanding tone.

But it was too late.

The letter had been opened, and the main computer screen immediately went blue, followed by a blinding blue light emanating from the screen!

"Om-!"

Jiang Renkuan's eyes widened.

The other dozen or so technicians were all frozen in place.

Their pupils gradually contracted, and their eyes became dull and lifeless, like sleepwalkers who had completely lost consciousness.

......

[Eliminating a malicious computer virus...]

[Virus scan complete...]

Gao Shenxue quickly eliminated the computer virus that had invaded her body and soon woke up.

At this moment, she had been drawn into a special world by the blue light that had just flashed from the computer screen.

This world is a virtual green screen space, in which code and data are constantly being refreshed and scrolling.

Not far from her, Jiang Renkuan and a dozen senior technicians from Mingcheng were floating aimlessly in the weightless space.

Unlike Gao Shenxue, who could eliminate the virus, their eyes were lifeless, clearly still trapped in the illusion caused by the computer virus.

"A data illusion created using a computer virus...?"

Gao Shenxue looked around thoughtfully.

"We meet again, Miss Gao Shenxue," Lin Ou's voice rang out.

Gao Shenxue turned her head and saw Lin Ou dressed as a genetics company employee.

"It really was you who did this," she said.

Lin Ou laughed and said, "Your skills are indeed extraordinary. As a scientist, even in my area of ​​expertise as a hacker, the viruses I created were so easily cracked by you one by one. This really hurts my pride..."

Before Gao Shenxue could finish speaking, her cold eyes suddenly sharpened, and a stream of dark blue data shot out from the depths of her irises!

Her pupils gleamed with technological brilliance, and countless lines of code flashed rapidly in their reflection.

As the authorization command for the core database on the system panel suddenly lit up, spatial ripples caused by the vibration of nanoparticles spread around her!

Ten prism-like Herka alloy swords emerged from the void, their blades leaving lattice-like energy trails as they tore through the air!

At the same time, it flew towards Lin Ou!

"!" Lin Ou's pupils contracted.

Before he could react, ten Herka swords struck him instantly, their quantum entanglement causing them to hit his vital points simultaneously!

"Pfft——!"

"Pfft——!"

"Pfft——!"

Heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, stomach, spleen... all were pierced by Herka's sword!

"Aa ...

Accompanied by agonizing screams and cries of pain, Lin Ou's entire body was completely annihilated and dismembered by the brilliance of Herka's sword...

The ten Herka swords quickly flew back to Takayuki's side, hovering around her behind her, while the girl's cool and calm face remained almost unchanged.

"I didn't expect Miss Gao Shenxue to be so impatient." However, a few seconds later, Lin Ou's chuckled voice rang out again.

His body transformed back into human form as countless data points converged.

"..." Gao Shenxue remained silent.

Ultimately, this is a virtual world online, much like a holographic game.

Although this world has pain and the five senses, the rules were ultimately designed by Lin Ou.

He can be resurrected without limit, as long as he wants.

"The feeling of having all my internal organs pierced is really unpleasant..." Lin Ou patted his chest. "Unfortunately, in this virtual network world, I have unlimited resurrection coins. Even if you can break free from the illusion of the computer virus and escape my control, you still can't defeat me here."

Gao Shenxue replied expressionlessly, "Is that so?"

A stream of dark blue data shot out from the girl's pupils once again.

Lin Ou's expression changed.

He felt that the virtual computer world he had created was beginning to shake!

He opened his system panel.

'This Takayuki, she's actually trying to tamper with the code of my world, to change the rules of this virtual world?!'

Lin Ou was very surprised.

"Since you like resurrection so much, I'll let you resurrect as many as you want." Gao Shenxue said expressionlessly, "I will increase your pain sensitivity to 1000%."

Lin Ou: "!!?!"

A technological brilliance once again shone in Gao Shenxue's clear, cold eyes.

The ten Herka swords buzzed as they flew up, once again tearing through the void and hurtling away!

Countless flashes of sword light and shadow rapidly crisscrossed and slashed at Lin Ou's body!

Lin Ou: "Aa ...
