Starting as a Mechanical Hunter

Chapter 786: Chapter 310: The Next Mother of Data

Gao Yuanyuan’s pupils suddenly widened, staring at the other party in shock, completely unexpected that the other party had become a being of the same type as herself.

”Two personalities of the same person, simultaneously mastering part of that ’relic’, even the will of the Mother City couldn’t have predicted this.”

Only then did Gao Yuanyuan realize that beside the ’Corpse Mountain’ was a slightly attractive middle-aged woman, and with just one glance, it was as if she saw endless spiders and countless weaving threads entwined with one data stream after another, boundlessly wrapping around the whole world.

”Mother of Data.”

Gao Yuanyuan finally realized who the other party was.

This was a big data conceptual body that had interacted with her brother.

And looking at Gao Yuanyuan, Eliza’s smile widened even more, from her eyes, the current Gao Yuanyuan was not within the search scope of this planet’s data at all.

In other words, the timid girl standing before her, still carrying some fear in her eyes, was a very advanced Information Life.

An existence at the same tier as the Planet Host.

”Don’t be nervous, don’t be afraid, you must have heard Mr. G mention me, right,” Eliza tried to comfort the other party, ”My relationship with him is very close, it’s not an exaggeration to say we’re comrades, we’re on the same front.”

”You’re talking too much,” Gox sneered, glancing at the big screen with eyeshadowed eyes, the red alarm sound lit up once again.

”I’m impatient to listen to your nonsense, I’m going out for a walk.”

Gox snapped his red-painted fingernails, and in the next moment, the Corpse Mountain of Electronic Guardians began to mutate, red code melted on the surface of the corpses, merging code with code, turning into pallid skin, and heads stuck together, forming a strange-looking, hundred-handed, hundred-footed giant fat man.

Gox sat on the other’s shoulder, laughing out loud, ”Let’s go, Little Blackie No. 2, let’s destroy all the defense machines of this company!”

This fat man, exuding evil qi, groaned, and with one heavy step, directly stomped a hole in the underlying network of this database, causing at least ten computation machines to explode in reality.

”Alright, let’s continue our chat.”

”With the guarantee of these two, you should know by now that I’m not a bad person,” Eliza withdrew her gaze and said with a smile, ”The reason I’ve come to find you this time is actually to offer you a great benefit.”

Gao Yuanyuan cautiously looked towards the other.

”Would you be willing to absorb my power and become the next ’Mother of Data’?”

”Me?”

Gao Yuanyuan blinked, taking a while to regain her senses.

”Why?”

”Because of this.”

Eliza casually grasped with her palm, tossed forward an electronic insect which disappeared, as a scene appeared simultaneously.

Domineering and overwhelming data radiance covered everything.

Gao Yuanyuan’s small face turned white, taking a few steps back.

”This is the Golden Rule, once the foundational protocol of Cyber Space and also the oldest data framework on this planet, covering all intelligent creatures on this planet, back then it took quite some effort to spread it globally, and we existences were created at that time.”

”I don’t understand.”

”Look again.”

Gao Yuanyuan mustered her courage, stepped forward a few steps, and watched carefully.

In the gold light, there seemed to be nine ancient figures, each of their chests nailed with a stake burning with colorless flames. Moreover, both left and right shoulder blades had something akin to ’fishhooks’ inserted, piercing through the bones and suspending them in the air.

”Ah!!”

Gao Yuanyuan suddenly screamed because two of the nine figures were already gnawed down to bloody bones.

And an indescribable chewing sound continued amidst the radiance.

She sensed a familiar presence.

Eliza pointed between the nine figures to one vacant spot.

”Look, this was supposed to be my position.”

Gao Yuanyuan was taken aback.

”We were schemed by the Fortress, it didn’t conduct ’Big Data Conceptual Body’ version updates, embedding us into the Golden Rule, it wasn’t for his so-called eternal life, but to feed us to that Turing God, to create the most powerful monster, and then use this monster to devour all the Destruction Forms.”

Eliza gently patted Gao Yuanyuan’s little head, smiling affectionately:

”You’re No. 13, and this monster is No. 3, there is a connection between you two.”

Gao Yuanyuan looked at the other person, then at the empty space in the Golden Rule, hesitating:

”You want me to become the Mother of Data, then—”

”Do not fear, girl, not to mention that you and Gox are of one heart, even for Mr. G’s sake, I wouldn’t make you my scapegoat. On the contrary, I would become your experimental subject.”

Eliza continued:

”Let me put it this way, the Big Data Conceptual Body won’t die, even if this version is devoured, a new version will soon be born. But this new version is like a reincarnation, it completely forgets the appearance of its previous life. But if we can leverage the traits of the Big Data Conceptual Body to manipulate it in reverse, then I could escape the fate of the Big Data Conceptual Body. This is why I’ve spent a great amount of effort helping Gox become a Mutant Fusion, whose greatest trait is creating mutated life.”

”By the time I am reborn, with your ability to restore my memory, I can shed the identity of a Big Data Conceptual Body and achieve rebirth.”

”But this way, the Authority of the Mother of Data would fall, so I wish to bestow it upon you. Firstly, to repay your kindness, and secondly, I don’t want my old body to be easily devoured by it.”

Eliza paused and said:

”But don’t worry that you’ll be embedded in the Golden Rule. I will split into three: my will would become the ’New Me’, my ability will be absorbed by you, and what is embedded there will be the ’Old Me’; to put it metaphorically, it’s like you and Gox’s relationship, except we are in three parts.”

”So this way, if that monster wants to devour me, it won’t be able to find my coordinates?” Gao Yuanyuan started to understand her meaning.

Gao Yuanyuan now understood why the other person sought her out. Only her Rewind System could allow Eliza to recover her ’previous life’s memory’.

However, having been influenced by the experienced Gao Gong, Gao Yuanyuan immediately realized that if she did this, No. 3 would very likely become hostile towards her, considering the opportunity slipping away.

Eliza looked at her and smiled:

”Your identity, along with Gox’s, has destined that you’ll eventually confront it. So what’s the difference if you offend the other party now?”

Gao Yuanyuan realized, in a way, this was also a form of compensation. After contemplating for a while, she asked, ”Then why didn’t you notify my brother first? Aren’t you quite familiar with him?”

”Do you think he would agree to let you take this risk?” Eliza countered.

Gao Yuanyuan hesitated, knowing her brother was always doting on her. And this matter indeed seemed risky, not only offending No. 3 but also the Fortress.

”Then do you want to?” she asked again.

”Of course, she wouldn’t want to. She’s so timid. When there was no one to help her, she dumped her negative emotions on me. Now that there’s someone to help her, she’d still hide behind others, comfortably playing the lovable little sister.”

Gox had returned, covered in blood, grinning mischievously at Gao Yuanyuan.

This familiar face, 80% similar, seemed so strange to Gao Yuanyuan. It seemed she never tried to understand the other self.

Gao Yuanyuan fell into deep thought, and the other two did not rush her. After a long while, she looked up and spoke earnestly:

”I want to give it a try!”

...

”Tsk tsk, the little poor thing has grown up.”

Gao Yuanyuan doesn’t know, Gox doesn’t know, even Eliza is unaware, in the Purple String Space, Gao Gong had been silently watching this transaction.

Eliza is aware of Turing’s danger, which is no surprise to Gao Gong, considering ’Google’ knows everything and can find anything as long as you master the technique.

Raising ’Gox’ as a fallback seems only natural.

What surprised Gao Gong was her willingness to give up the Authority of the Mother of Data. This move is akin to practicing the ’Transmission Skill’, directly transferring all her power to Gao Yuanyuan. With this move, Gao Yuanyuan would at least level up by 10, possibly even 20 levels.

These are 20 levels at Tier 3.

”Imagine thinking I wouldn’t agree, am I that much of a sister-con?”

To be fair, even if he were present, he would have agreed too. For one, the Memory Mother is coming, better to take a risk now than get obliterated by the opponent later.

If Gao Yuanyuan reaches the peak of Tier 3, she might barely catch a glimpse of the Memory Worm’s trace, which is exceedingly crucial for Gao Gong’s plan.

At this moment, a stream of data directly transmitted over, accompanied by Gao Yuanyuan’s voice in his ear.

”Brother, I need to rest for a while. Don’t worry, after I’m well-rested, I’ll help you collect the ’Professional Knowledge Chain’.”

Meanwhile, the system prompt sound echoed.

[You have acquired Level 2 Information Civilization: The Professional Knowledge Chain under the Artificial Data Space (Cyber Space) - Universal Program]

Universal Program: Manufacturing of Artificial Intelligence, template injection for Machine Life, compiling of Virtual Personality, building of Virtual Realm protocols, transformation and download of Advanced Information, setting up of Virtual Firewalls, this is the ultimate software development version.

”Tsk tsk, even this was collected, the knowledge needed for the ’Safe House’ is now complete.”

The system prompt sound rang out once again.
