Defeat the system! Kiss my little monster!

Chapter 322 Emotional Detachment

Tamer spent a long time in the control room, taking in all the system numbers. He watched as the numbers, symbolizing the system's identity, overlapped and floated, and a sense of inexplicable weariness crept in.

He got up, picked up the stored life data file, and went outside.

【Hello, main system.】

As Tamo walked through the corridor inside the system headquarters, the smaller systems working there all stepped aside to greet him politely.

Tamo nodded slightly and quickly walked past them.

He didn't know when it started, but these little systems would proactively greet him and talk to him. Most of their messages were unrelated to the mission, sounding like everyday grumbling and complaints. Every time Tamo heard them, he felt a vague discomfort.

What he initially created were just machines, and no matter how much time passes, they should remain just machines.

But one day these systems suddenly acquired something beyond machinery, as if they had sprouted new life, becoming exceptionally bright and vibrant.

He seemed more like a half-dead, decaying old man.

[Hello, main system. No vulnerabilities were found today; everything went smoothly.]

[Main System, hello. The security threat in Area B has been eliminated, and the world is operating smoothly. The system currently receiving this mission is numbered...]

[Hello, main system. Please be aware of microwave fluctuations in the X16 region. A system appears to be under attack, and there are signs of a distress call...]

【Hello, main system…】

Tamo walked amidst the constantly rising voice reports, several small systems floating past him, repeating the same things he already knew.

[Hello, Master System. You look unwell. Do you need to rest? I will prepare energy and a delivery tube for you.]

Tamer paused, his eyes shifting to the small purple sphere floating on the wall to his left. The sphere bobbed slightly up and down in the air, its panel blank.

[Strategy System... It's been a long time. Have you completed your mission?]

The purple sphere hovered in the air, with tiny energy fluctuations on its blank data panel. Upon hearing this, it respectfully nodded towards Tamo.

[Yes, main system. I just finished a mission in the previous world and was about to report back to you.]

Tamo stood still, his face always expressionless. Even though he had taken over the body of a merman, his every move was like that of a controllable instrument in a skin.

He stared at the purple ball in silence for a long time before walking past it.

[Just submit it to headquarters; I don't have time right now.]

The purple ball moves backward and sideways across the body of the ball.

[Okay, main system.]

Tamer soon reached the end of the corridor. As always, he spent very little time in the control room; usually, after handling the critical missions reported by the smaller systems, he would quickly leave the place.

The purple ball watched Tamo walk away, then spun and floated towards the control room. It had an identification device installed on its body; the door sensed and recognized its code, automatically opening to both sides.

Seeing this, the purple ball looked around. Finding no trace of the other small systems, it quickly burrowed into the control room.

"Are they in? Are they in? There are security cameras inside, so please don't give us away..."

"I'm really lucky. The main system didn't even ask for the test report. I worked tirelessly to create so much data, I should get paid for my hard work."

"The best-case scenario is that he hasn't noticed it yet, but there's no guarantee he won't become suspicious later."

"Zhou Yanshu, after connecting to the headquarters controller, we will use the software left behind by Gouqie Tousisheng to launch a virus intrusion. It won't take long, only one minute. You need to determine Gouqie Tousisheng's location as soon as possible during this time."

After entering the control room, the purple ball quickly disappeared into a blind spot of the surveillance cameras.

Zhou Yanshu's soul was sealed inside the system shell of the purple sphere. Inside, he answered calls from the other world while quickly scanning his surroundings with his eyes.

"I know, I will do it as soon as possible."

As he spoke, he quickly located the headquarters controller.

The main system did not conceal or protect these things. Zhou Yanshu accelerated and floated to the side of the controller, tilted his sphere and connected to the conduction device with energy.

Qi Mohan, as a strategy system, has always disliked his spherical body, so he often possesses humans to gain the upper hand.

Unexpectedly... in the current situation, his body actually provided the best cover for Zhou Yanshu.

“It’s connected,” Zhou Yanshu said in a low voice.

"Received, received, the virus missiles have been sent." With a few keystrokes, the call was interrupted for a brief moment.

A dozen seconds later, all the lights in the control room went out, leaving only the large panel in the center emitting a blue light.

Zhou Yanshu flew to the main control panel, his body hovering above the sphere. The virus had already infiltrated the core of the control room. He lowered his gaze and used his energy to type Yu Zhuo's name on the keyboard.

An error indicator appears in the center of the panel, indicating that no one is present.

Each of these small systems has its own unique number, which is also their unique identifier.

Do I need to enter a system ID?

Ke Yuzhuo is a system that has been dismantled and destroyed; its number may have already been erased by the main system.

Moreover, he had never told Zhou Yanshu what his number was before, let alone Pei Du and the others.

Zhou Yanshu paused above the keyboard, his mind racing. He deleted the two characters "Yu Zhuo" and typed "Su Hui" instead.

The main panel went blank again, swallowing the error symbols.

During the tens of seconds of silence, Zhou Yanshu remained motionless. The purple light around him was faint, as if the surrounding darkness was biting him, as if he would be chewed up at any moment.

【drop--】

The main panel emitted a notification sound, and a second or two later, dense data covered the entire screen.

Zhou Yanshu quickly glanced through the documents above.

He didn't have time to open them one by one, so he only found the "Tracing Back" files that were marked with key information, filtered them, quickly saved them, and then transferred them into the database that came with the Purple Ball.

【Tracing Back Images (1-17)】

【Tracing and Cultivation Guide】

【Tracing Back to the Body Construction Model (Experimental Version)】

……

Zhou Yanshu read through the document line by line, ignoring the useless parts.

He kept scrolling down, and then stopped in his tracks after seeing some of the next content.
