Chapter 873: The System is Too Powerful!
what happened?
Zero was initially puzzled, but his puzzlement quickly turned into astonishment, as he was indeed unable to move his body or head at all!
His body felt as if it were stuck in a swamp, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't escape. Even his thoughts became difficult to process, as if an invisible hand was binding him tightly, making him unable to move!
"Who! Who's behind this?"
Zero finally panicked and shouted angrily.
His eyeballs were also unable to move, but the person who called himself "Gu Heng" stood in front of him, motionless, with a confused expression on his face, as if he could not understand why he had suddenly become so frightened, as if he had encountered something extremely terrifying.
"how……"
Zero's unmoving eyeballs finally saw that next to the data node, there was a small projection of a girl.
But what exactly is this projection...?
wrong!
He realized that he wasn't unable to move, but rather that his entire body was being completely controlled by a more advanced "program"!
Technological civilizations differ from other cultivation civilizations in that they emphasize a comprehensive leap across levels, with advanced technology absolutely suppressing advanced technology!
Now, Zero finds himself being suppressed.
What exactly was suppressing him?
Within this incredibly barren Origin Realm, under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Dao Civilization, in this Origin Realm where concepts such as "Buddha," "magic," "wizard," and "technology" do not exist, why does a unique hierarchical suppression, characteristic of technological civilizations, exist?
Zero immediately remembered the nascent epochal god whose technological civilization had been forcibly taken away!
"You...you really are..."
Zero wanted to give the answer, but it was too late. He wanted to pass the message on to the other six people, but it was too late.
The system projector placed its hand on the crystal, and Gu Heng immediately saw a large amount of data flowing from the crystal to the girl's projection.
Perhaps this is the embodiment of data transmission?
He couldn't understand.
This technological stuff was really beyond Gu Heng's grasp. The world he came from emphasized cultivation and the supremacy of martial arts; everyone there was involved in abstract concepts like "cultivation." He had been here for over twenty years.
Gu Heng had almost forgotten what it would have felt like to live in a technologically advanced place in his previous life.
"Data node information being received..."
"Data received."
soon!
In the short time it took Gu Heng to glance at it, the system seemed to have done everything it needed to do.
He also noticed Zero's abnormality. Suddenly, he stood still, didn't say a word, and had such a frightened expression. Obviously, something was wrong!
Gu Heng glanced at Zero, then at the system projection, his brow furrowing slightly: "What did you do?"
The system's female projection remained expressionless, her voice calm: "Biological hostility detected. I have taken countermeasures. The hostile target is under control. Hostile target, no need to worry." Gu Heng was stunned for a moment, then realized: "You mean... this guy is under your control now?"
"Yes." The system projection nodded. "The hostile target's technology level is lower than this system's, and it cannot resist system commands."
"……what?"
He didn't quite understand, but it sounded really impressive.
Many years have passed since he learned of the existence of the system within him. The system has provided him with a lot of help over the years, but it is rare for the system to personally intervene.
Never had.
Not even once.
But this time, the system surprisingly took the initiative, and even used the term "hostile target" directly...
Gu Heng glanced at Zero, then at the blue-glowing crystal, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
He originally thought there would be a fierce battle and even prepared to run away, but he didn't expect that as soon as the system made its move, Zero was directly suppressed and unable to move.
"Analyzing the received information..."
"Analysis completed."
"The system's database has been expanded with a large amount of information. It is recommended that the host go to the 'Eye of Technology,' the holy land of the 'technological civilization,' so that the system can further obtain the highest level of authority."
"Highest level of authority?" Gu Heng asked, somewhat puzzled. "You mean something like an upgrade?"
"Yes."
The system replied, "However, the information our system currently has is sufficient to answer many of the host's questions."
Upgrading the system seemed like a win-win situation, but Gu Heng had no knowledge of the new terms "technological civilization" and "holy land of the era."
The system should already know. It seems he'll have to have a long talk with the system when he gets back after he's done here.
"Then... what should we do with this guy?"
Gu Heng looked at Zero, who was still unable to move, and asked.
“The hostile target has been controlled. The host may choose to eliminate or preserve it.”
"What do you think?"
"This system recommends that the host choose to retain the data node. When the hostile target attempted to send six messages to the outside world with higher privileges on the data node connected to this system, the content of the messages has been intercepted by this system. At present, the hostile target no longer has the opportunity to send any messages."
"But choosing to eliminate them might cause unexpected situations."
Every time the system spoke, Gu Heng felt it was incredibly reliable, so reliable it was unbelievable!
"You mean, his comrades might know he was killed and then be lured over?" "Yes."
"Then lock him up. Let me think about what to do with him."
Gu Heng pondered for a moment, then made a decision. In fact, he felt that neither killing Ling nor locking him up was a perfect solution.
However, killing him on the spot would likely alert his comrades immediately, and locking him up to prevent him from communicating with the outside world wouldn't mean his comrades would stop contacting him.
There will always be a time when things go wrong.
But locking him up at least gives him more time to prepare and deal with his companions.
"This system recommends that hostile targets be confined within the prison of the 'Apocalypse' warship. The technological level of the hostile targets cannot break through the prison in any way."
"Battleship?"
Gu Heng was taken aback for a moment, then looked at the mechanical island he was standing on. "You mean, this island is a warship?"
"Correct. According to the information from the data nodes, this is a top-tier weapon of a technological civilization, fully armed with 'observation technology'."
"...So this warship is now under your control too?"
This time, the system didn't answer; the girl's projection simply stared at Gu Heng with an expressionless face, remaining silent.
That's like saying, "Isn't that obvious?"
"If you ever have a real body, I really want to hold you tight."
After Gu Heng spent a few seconds figuring out what he had actually gained, his impression of the system completely changed!
This system is amazing!
They are simply the best partner and helper one can have in life!
He's so lucky to have a system! Although Gu Heng had cursed the unreliability of systems in his heart more than once before...
But the past is the past, right?
