Chapter 1246 Such exploitation?
Tang Tang's initial amazement had faded. She hesitated, then raised her hand cautiously, gently touching and stroking it, her voice tinged with complexity as she asked, "What race are you...? A crystal person?"
That sounds really strange.
A fleeting smile appeared on the system's handsome, cold face. He brought his face closer to Tang Tang, and Tang Tang's exquisitely beautiful features gave him a bizarre and chilling feeling.
His silvery eyes were fixed on Tang Tang. He lowered his head and placed a kiss on her lips, then moved deeper and deeper.
When the kiss ended, Tang Tang felt the weight on her body suddenly disappear, and then the figure in front of her vanished like steam, leaving no trace.
She hesitated and slowly got up. There was no one around, as if everything that had just happened was her imagination and illusion.
"……system?"
The afterglow of the experience was still lingering in her body, and Tang Tang subconsciously called out with some hesitation.
[This is not a hallucination.]
The system suddenly explained,
[It's just that the time has come; this world is too fragile to withstand the energy of a higher plane for too long.]
He said,
【See you next time. 】
When is the next time?
Tang Tang said unhappily, "Hey!"
Unfortunately, the system is now silent.
A few seconds later, Tang Tang called out again, "Tongbao?"
[Host! I'm here.]
Before Tang Tang could ask, the system hurriedly said,
[Did nothing go wrong just now? I was forced into hibernation—I revoked all non-user login privileges QAQ.]
Tang Tang remembered that Tongbao had said before that he would automatically shut down the computer when he detected an unexpected login to prevent accidents.
However, what just went online was a part of the main system... so obviously Tongbao's automatic shutdown can prevent others from shutting down, but it can't prevent itself from shutting down.
However, to Tang Tang's slight surprise, the current system seemed to have no memory of what had just happened.
She paused for a moment, then stood up from the hammock.
When the system left, it took everything from her body... all traces. Now, she is as clean as a dried-out strand of hair.
But there was still a lingering feeling... The image of the system's inhuman, crystal-like handsome face flashed through Tang Tang's mind again. She asked, "Don't you know what just happened?"
The system is in a low mood.
[I don't know... After I automatically shut down, I'll stop running, and all the stored energy will become a protective shield to protect your safety. It's like I've directly stopped consciousness.]
Tang Tang knew what the system meant by energy. Currently, the system's energy came from two sources.
The first is the fragments of world consciousness collected by Tang Tang, which is the world's primordial energy.
The second comes from Tang Tang's global influence, which is a kind of emotional energy generated from countless humans and social groups.
The system will collect this energy as its operating basis and use it to protect Tangtang when necessary.
Tang Tang concealed the fact that the system had appeared and suddenly asked with some curiosity, "If it were someone like Naya who wanted to hurt me... could you protect me?"
【OK】,
The system definitely spoke, its tone very firm.
[If anything unexpected happens, all the energy I've stored will explode. This explosion will tear through space, sending you to safety.]
Tang Tang smiled slightly and didn't ask any more questions.
That's enough.
Now that things have come to this, all she has to do is not let anything affect her plans.
Taking it one step at a time is all she needs to do.
“Nothing happened,” Tang Tang said. “Do you remember your previous memories? You said before that the influence of the world consciousness prevented you from telling me much… What about now?”
The system hesitated,
I remember a little bit... not much. I fell from a planet... I only remember the intentions of everyone on that planet.
Their consciousness was so empty that they chose suicide.
My consciousness, being too powerful, eventually became the center of the entire planet… followed by a crash and explosion. I was swept into a spacetime turbulence, and when I opened my eyes again, I met you.
"I see," Tang Tang nodded, changing the subject, "I understand."
……
She is dreaming.
Tang Tang knew she was dreaming. Her eyes were heavy, and her consciousness seemed to be floating in stagnant water, so heavy that she couldn't open her eyes.
Falling.
Falling.
Falling.
Tang Tang felt as if she had turned into a stone, a raindrop, or a speck of dust that could be carried by the wind, falling uncontrollably.
She tried hard to open her eyes, but she couldn't. She could only struggle like a bird with wet feathers.
As the fall stopped, Tang Tang heard a faint, ethereal laugh. She shivered coldly, feeling something soft, wet, and flexible brush against her waist. Then she suddenly opened her eyes.
Tang Tang's pupils were slightly dilated. She stared blankly at the towering dome, feeling as if she were lying inside some kind of building.
The extremely high dome seemed untouchable, exceeding Tang Tang's comprehension, yet she could clearly see all the patterns on the dome.
Tall, exquisitely carved Roman columns support a beautiful dome, above which are inverted carvings of ethereal, flowing clouds. A man and a woman, resembling ancient Greek sculptures, yet...
Tang Tang's vision blurred for a moment, and then the human head that was originally normal suddenly became elongated or flattened like clay, like the head of an octopus.
She opened her eyes wide and saw everything return to normal, but the next second, the arms and legs of the man or woman in the sculpture suddenly turned into long, blackish-purple tentacles.
The tentacles suddenly shot out, twisting and intertwining with each other, and then plummeted down from the dome several meters high, falling directly towards Tang Tang.
"Depend on!"
Tang Tang had just felt exhausted, as if she had finally crawled out of a nightmare, but now, seeing the tentacles falling towards her face, she immediately felt no longer tired.
A surge of primordial power seemed to rise within her, and Tang Tang scrambled to her feet in a single roll, her movements as agile as a special forces soldier.
"Tongbao!"
[Host, I am here. 】
System Road,
The air here smells of the starry sky.
Oh well, it's Nyarlathotep again.
It's true what they say, speak of the devil, and he appears.
She had only uttered His name a few times today, silently, and now He had pulled her into another dimension again?
Tang Tang was so angry she laughed, and in her mind she cursed the system and Naya together.
Who does she think she is? She travels billions of light-years during the day and is dragged into another dimension by an evil god at night. Even being a corporate slave isn't as tiring as her!
This is exploitation!
She tumbled down from where she had been, and now that she had come to a stop, she found that the enormous tentacles that had fallen from the dome, which seemed to be hundreds or thousands of meters long, had disappeared.
