Free Web NovelChapter 1563: Chapter 1572: The Fickleness of Human Hearts
"T, why have you appeared? Is there a security fault at the Central Hub Station?"
Feeling a vast aura suddenly sweep over them, the elders of the Elder Council were all awakened and gathered in front of a little girl in a matter of moments.
If told, perhaps no one would believe it, this cute and blushing little girl was actually the final executor of the mainframe, known interstellarly for her fairness and strictness.
She is an Intelligent Brain with human emotions.
No one knows how she came into being or who created her.
It was as if, one day, she suddenly appeared voluntarily in the view of the superiors. At that time, the level of interstellar technology was far less advanced than it is now, and it was precisely because of her appearance that human technological development broke through its shackles and entered a period of rapid advancement.
It was also because of her that humans discovered spiritual power so easily a thousand years ago.
And now she manages everything in the human Third World’s Star Network and the security guards of the Central Star.
The role of T is evident, but in recent years, she has rarely appeared in public. Even the elders of the Elder Council found it extremely difficult to meet her.
T did not answer the elders’ questions, but her expression was excited, her eyes filled with tears, her shoulders trembling with joy, "Finally, I’ve been waiting for you."
The elders looked at each other; from the day T appeared, they knew she had been waiting for someone.
But a thousand years passed, and the person she waited for was nowhere to be found, so they assumed they misunderstood T’s intentions, never expecting her to appear suddenly today.
The elders had varied expressions, their faces obscure and uneasy, and each mind was restless.
Someone with strong thoughts carefully suggested, "Where is the person you are looking for, we can help..."
The previously fragile-looking T suddenly turned her gaze, her cold, inorganic silver pupils flickering with various symbol data, her voice piercing, "Don’t do anything unnecessary."
Being stared at by her non-human eyes, even the elders whose spiritual power had reached SS couldn’t withstand it, dodging her gaze with cold sweat dripping.
Soon, the silver light flickering in her pupils extinguished, returning to normal human emotions, but her voice was still cold, "This is not something you should pry into, do not challenge my bottom line."
After speaking, T instantly disappeared from the screens everywhere, leaving only a gloomy voice echoing in the empty space.
The elders stood frozen in place, not dispersing for a long time.
"What do you think?"
"Although T doesn’t allow it, are you at ease letting the unknown run its course? Moreover, to put it bluntly, anything not of our species must have differing intentions, who knows what T’s purpose is, she controls our lifeline, as soon as she wants, we could at any time...." The rest of the words trailed off.
He again felt that all-pervasive sense of being watched, his lips trembling, concealing the remaining words between his lips and teeth, yet everyone could see the extreme unwillingness on his face.
Hidden within the data, T naturally heard the words of those discussing, no matter how cautiously and softly they spoke, or even if they used spiritual isolators, as long as it was in a place with the Star Network on this planet, no one could hide from her watchful ears.
T chuckled coldly; indeed, humans were as she once told herself, complex and changeable.
Thousands of years ago, they only had gratitude and faith in her, but now they began to feel dissatisfaction and unwillingness.
Her existence had become a stumbling block on the path of their power hunger.
Negative emotions flashed through T’s mind quickly overtaken by joy and excitement once again.
Spanning time and space, she had now grown into a powerhouse; this time it was her turn to guard her.
No rush, no rush, the time to reveal herself to her was not yet ripe.
----------
The rich and fresh midday sunlight filtered through the mottled shadows of the trees, scattering tiny golden rays, falling on the body of the beautiful girl on the lounge chair, as if draping her in a light veil.
The students training hard on the playground, their glances swept over here, instantly breaking into silly, entranced smiles.
A glance and a smile from the Beauty was like a painting, the most beautiful scene in the academy.
But these little ripples vanished instantly as the girl on the lounge chair opened her eyes.
"Double the training amount." A light, weightless voice, with a lazy charm at the end, fell upon them, like being struck by Rashamon, their reflexive skins tightened.
Beauties are but fleeting clouds.
The Jingang Minglan group lamented endlessly, yet dared not stop, fearing the voice of the devilish junior sister would sound again.
Under such strong training, the changes in their bodies were earth-shattering.
The boys’ sharp and explosive aura manifested outward, the girls’ lines were taut with a potent explosiveness.
If any insider came to observe, they’d definitely be overwhelmingly astonished. A closer look revealed those students’ breaths carried an indescribable strange rhythm.
Between every inhalation and exhalation, with a special rhythm, their spiritual power became more vigorous, their bodies faintly starting to communicate subtly with heaven and earth.
Su Li squinted her eyes, leaning to one side, half-reclining, her gaze following the Jingang Minglan group, with a radiance in her eyes.
The Breathing Technique was something she dug up from the collection of Su Chang’an.
The name was simply the Breathing Technique, with only a few lines, yet it had miraculous effects.
Seeing the changes happening with the Jingang Minglan group, speaks volumes, enough to astonish the world.
In just three months, everyone’s improvement had jumped by a whole major stage, and even those with poor qualifications experienced leaps over multiple stages, a usual occurrence.
This Breathing Technique, akin to cultivation methods, usable even in the interstellar era, does it mean that the methods she once experienced in her illusion could also be easily applied here?
Or, is it possible that her illusion was really just a whimsical imagination?
She had heard before, at the end of science, lies Divine Study.
The scraps collected by Su Chang’an seemed to prove that at one time a glorious cultivation civilization existed and that traces of Gods appeared.
Perhaps she could boldly speculate that before the current interstellar civilization, everything described in the Ancient Books might have truly existed? Only to be destroyed for some unknown reason.
Or perhaps....
"Su Li..."
A Spirit Light flashed through Su Li’s mind, but before she could grab it, she was abruptly interrupted.
She felt it could unlock the mysteries in her heart.
Immediately, Su Li became very impatient towards the interruption by Yun Jieyu, her face suddenly darkening, "What do you want?"
Yun Jieyu, like a startled squirrel, blinked a few times, tears filling her eyes.
"I, I...." she stuttered, very much like a bullied little thing.
