Chapter 361 Because they are my idiots
Chapter 361 Because they are my idiots
The next day, in the database server room on the upper level of the core of the science and technology city.
The city lord of the Science and Technology City, Tie Dongxi, and the godfather of the Science and Technology City, Tie Jingji, were exchanging sharp words, their tone full of tension, and they seemed poised to fight each other.
Even though Tie Jingji was two whole levels lower than Tie Dongxi, who was currently at the limit of the sect leader, his aura was still not inferior. The undeniable points he made in his words even made Tie Dongxi feel a little ashamed.
"That's enough. We have no way out. I don't have many more days left to hold this city up with my bare hands. The time machine is destroyed. We, who were born out of paradox, have nowhere else to go but here."
Cheol Dong-seok's eyes darted away; he had actually been persuaded, but at this point, he had no other choice...
"What do you mean? Haven't you learned your lesson from the mistakes my father made? Don't you know how many souls have been lost and cannot rest in peace since that incident more than a decade ago!"
Tie Jingji stared coldly at Tie Dongxi and picked up the picture of Necrozma.
"The power of a divine beast is not so easy to touch! Do you really think that tiny bit of divine power from the ocean current generator means we've succeeded? That's just because Lugia is good-natured! Look at that black guy, does he look like a good elf?"
"Putting aside judging by appearances, a mythical beast is a mythical beast! They won't listen to you just because you want to make a deal. Most of them have their own ideas and desires, and ordinary elves don't even have the right to trade with them."
Tie Jingji said so much, but Tie Dongxi didn't react at all, which made Tie Dongxi feel a little lonely.
"Sigh... Why am I telling you all this? You won't listen anyway. What am I trying to achieve? Talk to a brick wall?" Tie Jingji walked out of the computer room dejectedly.
He originally came only to discuss the placement of Qi Hao, but the conversation inexplicably shifted to his father's mistakes...
Perhaps this is some kind of omen, or perhaps it's because the divine beasts are far stronger than ordinary spirits, and he is too afraid of things like usurping the divine beasts.
………………
Fear is a life instinct...
Snapped!
Iron Thorn slapped himself hard across the face!
Dang!
A heavy clanging sound was heard, and a dent appeared directly on his face, showing that he had hurt himself badly.
However, Tie Jingji merely glanced at the damage data and said indifferently, "You almost broke your head? It's a pity that machines don't feel pain, otherwise I might have been able to pull myself together."
A few minutes later, Iron Thorn returned to his main control room.
This is the brain of the electronic world, and it is here that Qi Hao and Linus's consciousnesses entered.
hum!hum!
The alarm suddenly went off the moment Tie Jingji stepped through the gate.
Unlike the confrontation with Qi Hao, this alarm only appears when there is a major problem in the electronics industry.
The last time Tie Jingji heard this sound was many years ago, back when the electronics industry was still testing it.
He immediately put aside matters like repairing his neck and went straight to the core of the electronics world, his hands flying across the mainframe.
He even thought it wasn't fast enough, so he plugged a data cable into himself.
"What on earth is this?! Even the most advanced computer in the tech city has been loading for a whole day, and the database is about to explode! Why is this human's data comparable to that of a mythical beast?"
And his spirit, it actually has a world's data, where did it come from?
"Tear this down, this won't do, keeping this is too weird, how did this stone slab get in there too? Should I give it to the NPC, Linus? Finally, something normal, put it near Qihao. Holy crap, nine Eevee? Unbelievable! And what kind of Pokémon are Tian Ting and Typhon?"
"The outer shell of the mind? Ego? (Self) It seems we need to add more attributes." Iron Thorn extracted a bunch of unanalyzable things and integrated them together. "Calculate it yourself and integrate these into the electronic world."
On the screen, the words "Loading" appeared, followed by a slow progress bar, and streams of data flashed before Iron Thorn's eyes.
A strange feeling arose in Tie Jingji's heart, bypassing his logical framework.
"What does this mean? Why is the algorithm called Hope reacting?" He pondered, but his hands continued their work, assisting the core of the electronic world in analyzing Qi Hao's incredible data. "If it's him, perhaps it really can succeed. Then his arm... it must have some hidden agenda."
boom!
Just as Tie Jingji was focused on stitching together Qi Hao's data and fixing bugs, the door to the main control room was suddenly blasted open!
Molten alloy splashed everywhere, and the terrifying heat made the place like a purgatory. However, the corridor outside the control room was calm, with only puddles of molten iron on the ground and the wailing alarm signaling its arrival!
However, Tie Jingji remained silent, only slightly slowing down his typing speed, continuing to program without any intention of stopping.
"As expected of the godfather of Future Science City, you remain completely calm even with my arrival. I can think more highly of you now."
"How dare you ignore me like this!" The pressure of the god crushed down like a mountain, and in the blink of an eye, Tie Jingji was forced to the ground. However, even so, Tie Jingji did not stop what he was doing.
"Oh? You're not even afraid of the gods? I'm starting to admire you more and more." He didn't withdraw his oppressive aura, but instead walked forward step by step.
"No, to be honest, I was terrified." Tie Jingji didn't turn around until he pressed the last Enter key, then he breathed a sigh of relief and turned to face the unknown god.
Solgaleo, the sun god!
“After all, I have faced the wrath of death, and my fear of the gods is deeper than that of ordinary elves.” Iron Thorn pressed down on his trembling legs and did not get up, because the gods had not given permission.
"You're here to kill me, aren't you? You sent a distress call to the rescue team under the guise of Duan Gangshan, but what you really wanted was to break free from Duan Gangshan's control. As for your purpose... to dominate humanity? Forget it, I can't figure it out anyway, but no matter what, I'm an obstacle for you." Tie Jingji shook his head; this was truly the worst-case scenario.
“It’s so much easier to talk to clever elves. Yes, humans are so corrupt and foolish. Almost all the conflicts in the world today originate from the darkness of human nature. Even elves can become weapons of war. The world will be destroyed sooner or later because of human malice! In that case, why don’t I destroy humans first!”
"Aren't you curious about why Future City disappeared? Why are the star crystals spreading? Join me! I have the ability to help you survive even after leaving the paradox! As long as you abandon this city and this bunch of idiots who are completely useless to you!"
Solgaleo stated that he had witnessed too much of the wickedness in people's hearts, and in his understanding, this was the truth: humanity was not worth saving, but only deserved to be destroyed!
However, Iron Thorn remained completely unmoved, simply smiling calmly.
"Idiots? Hahaha, yes, they really are a bunch of idiots." Iron Thorn laughed so hard he couldn't stop, even though he didn't actually have a mouth. "Go ahead and do it. I won't agree to it, not even if you're a god!"
“If it means giving these idiots a chance to live, then I would give up everything.”
Iron Thorn was no longer afraid and faced the god before her with composure.
"Because ultimately, they are my idiots."
"Amazing!" Solgaleo shook his head in regret, but the power of Meteor Dash had already begun to build up. "I don't think I'll forget you for a long time. You're the guy who gave your life for a city that was destined to disappear. You deserve to be called their godfather."
Soon, energy as powerful as the sun surged towards the Iron Thorns! Under the terrifying heat, the Iron Thorns began to melt even before it made contact!
However, Ironthorn slowly rose, opened his arms, and greeted the destruction brought by God with a smile.
"God, you are not right. The future never disappears, it only begins anew."
"From 0 to 1, all the way to the top, that's... "
future!"

Courage... is the hymn to life...
