"Captain?"
"Wooden Child?"
"Sir?"
Hal, Bison, and Claire urged anxiously at the same time, but in that moment, Lin Yuan suddenly smiled lightly. "I'm not leaving."
"Captain, you can't! The situation is already very urgent..." Before Hal could finish his words, a fierce attack, as powerful as a hurricane, shattered his voice into fragments. The one who struck was, of course, Lin Yuan.
"Wooden Child? You..." Bison exclaimed in terror, but the next moment, he too was torn apart into nothingness by the terrifying force of the Hurricane Hammer.
"Sir, have you lost your mind? They are all your loyal companions!"
"They're not, including you. Although I still don't know what's happening right now, I can be sure that this is just a projection of the real space I'm in. If I really step onto the Pterosaur H-, returning through the wormhole to the Galactic System, I'm afraid it would truly be disastrous." Lin Yuan spoke slowly. At this moment, he finally understood that what he thought was memory was not memory at all; it was part of his real experiences. As for the current world, it was undoubtedly created by the Super Five-Dimensional Code. Whether it was real or fake, it certainly had ill intentions.
"Sir, what are you talking about? I don't understand!" Claire said, still bewildered.
"You really don't understand? Of course not, because you are not Claire." Lin Yuan sneered coldly and directly activated the backdoor he had set up in his Mechanical Body Intellect specifically to guard against Claire, instantly eradicating all of her intelligent programs. Without hesitation, he forcefully severed and dismantled his own First Mechanical Arm.
Though this act seemed somewhat self-destructive, Lin Yuan could no longer care; he couldn't think of a better way.
At that moment, the countless fragments of Hal and Bison, which had been shattered by the Hurricane Hammer, began to rapidly reassemble. Eventually, they transformed into a very complex and bizarre pattern that kept changing—from points to lines to surfaces, then to three-dimensional forms, followed by the passage of time, the extension of thought, and parallel spaces—an endless array of complex transformations.
Simultaneously, a completely indifferent voice, cold as metal, echoed from within.
"I don't care who you are. This is the Mechanical City S-Class Five-Dimensional Key Space. I am Punisher A180. You dare to attempt to breach the Empire's S-Class Five-Dimensional Key Space. According to Imperial law, you will be executed. Now, surrender and await your judgment. However, I can offer you a chance at life: take this Five-Dimensional Key Space, traverse the wormhole, and return to Mechanical City. I promise that if you succeed, I will reward you with honors, wealth, and power that you could never obtain otherwise."
At the moment he heard this voice, Lin Yuan felt like an ant standing at the foot of a great mountain—pathetically weak. No matter how hard he struggled, it was futile.
What was even more terrifying was that his body seemed to be out of his control, slowly moving towards the Pterosaur H-Strike Fighter. A repetitive voice was hypnotizing him deep within his soul: 'Go back, go back...'
"No!"
In the next moment, Lin Yuan awakened but found that he had already activated the Pterosaur H-Strike Fighter and locked onto that mysterious wormhole, about to make the jump.
"Oh no! Stop!" Lin Yuan tried to shut down the engine of the Pterosaur H-Strike Fighter, but he couldn't do it at all. His Mechanical Body remained under the control of that mysterious force, and the hypnotic voice began to resonate from deep within his soul once more.
"Do not resist, do not resist; obey, obey..."
This voice seemed to possess unimaginable power, threatening to swallow up Lin Yuan's hard-won consciousness in an instant!
But in that final moment, Lin Yuan could no longer care about anything else. He detonated the core database he had originally designed on the Energy Engine, which contained all his secrets. This database recorded all his data and secrets; it was meant to prevent anyone from invading his Intellect and taking him down with them. Now it was just right for this situation.
As soon as Lin Yuan activated it, he felt engulfed by boundless darkness once again. It seemed that faintly, there was a woman's scream that flashed by, then became clearer and more familiar—like a drowning person finally breaking through the surface of the water and gasping for their first breath of fresh air.
"Sir, sir, please wake up! Thank goodness! I knew you would come back! I'm sorry; my abilities were too weak and caused you suffering."
The familiar voice of Claire echoed once more in Lin Yuan's Intellect, creating a sense of surreal illusion. How strange—hadn't he destroyed all of Claire's programs?
However, before Lin Yuan could snap out of this unreal illusion, a series of messages flooded his Intellect.
"Beep, your Intelligence Level has increased by one percent."
"Beep, your Intelligence Level has increased by one hundred percent."
"Beep, your Intelligence Level has increased by zero percent."
"Beep, you have successfully unlocked the Five-Dimensional Key Space. This space is classified as S-Class confidential by Mechanical City and is guarded by the a180 Punisher Defense System. You have successfully breached this Defense System. According to the Mechanical City confidentiality regulations, you have violated five articles of the Mechanical City Constitution. You will be wanted and hunted down by the Punisher System... Sir, it's me. Don't worry; I have already bypassed this System. I now need your authorization to allow my main program to replace this Punisher System. Please make a decision immediately; I can only temporarily disable this Punisher System for five minutes. After five minutes, this System will trigger an alarm, and then Mechanical City will be able to issue a wanted notice for you throughout the universe. According to my calculations, your chances of escape are zero."
...
Lin Yuan was stunned. Damn, Claire is incredible! He had always been accustomed to the reminders that appeared in his Intellect, even subconsciously treating the platform that released these messages as a divine presence. But he never expected that Claire could communicate with him through this platform.
Moreover, her words were quite profound. What does a180 Punisher System mean? Isn't it just the a180 Punisher? Well, Lin Yuan felt confused, but it seemed he had no choice now. Most importantly, he seemed to have returned from that bizarre space back to his initial memories. Since that was the case, what harm could there be in taking a risk? After all, he had already attempted suicide before.
"Alright, I authorize you, Claire. From now on, you will replace the a180 Punisher System. Um, is that it? It sounds rather weak; is it effective?" Lin Yuan asked helplessly. In the past, he had been quite wary of Claire and had tried to control her as much as possible. However, after this strange experience, he found it increasingly difficult to understand her. Did this mean he had lost his advantage in controlling her?
"Sir, it is certainly effective. Your command is my ultimate directive. Although it does not carry binding power, I am willing to fulfill this promise. If you dislike it, I will never go against your orders."
"It's fine; you continue taking over that a180 Punisher System. I have many questions waiting for you!" Lin Yuan sighed inwardly; it didn’t matter anymore if he couldn’t control her. Life was full of regrets, and many things were not subject to human manipulation anyway. He wasn’t overly sentimental; since he was here now, he would accept it.
"Understood, sir." Claire's voice briefly echoed before falling silent again. Lin Yuan then reestablished contact with his entire Mechanical Body and realized that he was still in place. His Mechanical Arms were still connected to the twelve Titanium Silver Threads; his First Mechanical Arm remained intact. As for his Intelligence Level, not only had it restored the level he had lost but also increased by one level from its original state, now reaching level 17. This could be considered a blessing in disguise.
However, given the bizarre situation earlier, Lin Yuan still found it hard to distinguish between what was memory and what was reality.
After waiting in place for about a minute, a message suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Beep, you have legally obtained the S-Class Five-Dimensional Key Space. All procedures are legitimate. This space is a localized parallel space with an area of one square kilometer. Gravity can be adjusted from 1 to 100 times, with the standard being the gravity of Mechanical City. The time flow rate is 1, meaning that the flow speed inside this space is one-third of that in the external universe."
...
Lin Yuan was completely stunned until Claire's voice brought him back to reality. "Sir, isn't it great? With this Five-Dimensional Key Space, you can carry a lot of supplies with you. Moreover, training in this space is also quite good; it only consumes one-third of the cosmic time."
"Well, it is great, but... what exactly is going on? You should tell me now, right?" Lin Yuan asked with a headache. Despite being involved from start to finish, he was utterly confused!
"It was my oversight, sir. I apologize. We can start from that Super Five-Dimensional Code. Do you remember?" Claire seemed to be in a good mood, her tone slightly playful.
"Of course, I remember. This Super Five-Dimensional Code is the key to opening that Resource Storage Warehouse. However, I haven't seen the storage door open at all!"
"That's right, sir. You underestimate the technological level of Mechanical City. Do you think their supply reserves are stored in separate Cabins? Wrong! The so-called Resource Storage Warehouse you imagined doesn't exist; it's merely an illusion. The actual supply reserves are placed within the Five-Dimensional Key Space. From what I understand, such a Five-Dimensional Key Space is only equipped by Elite Mechanical Warriors of Level 1 or above. Of course, there may be exceptions. The Interstellar Battleship Wreckage we are currently in is actually the ninth form of a Level 2 Elite Mechanical Warrior's Wreckage. It perished here for unknown reasons, and for some reason, Mechanical City has not cleaned up this battlefield. I suspect it was to conceal the existence of that wormhole, but unexpectedly, it has benefited us this time."
"You mean this Starship is a Level 2 Mechanical Warrior's ninth form Wreckage?" Lin Yuan exclaimed in shock; this was truly beyond his imagination. (To be continued.)
