had flushed cheeks. They all got into their respective cars and drove home.Three cars were left waiting for their passengers, one each for Yang Ziyì, Wei Xīnyī, and Zhao Xiāoróu.The driver waited for...But
"No buts about it, I admire your research spirit as scientists, but some things can be done, and some things cannot."
The way a conscious entity exists is too unique. Right now, the little sixth-grader I'm suppressing wouldn't be able to cause any ripples. But if you were to artificially create one, have you thought about what would happen if it replaced the central star's main control AI one day

Tang Caicai had a conflicted expression on her face. She genuinely wanted to continue her research, which is why she reached out to He Shaojiang as soon as she heard about his return, hoping to borrow his AI brain.
Ripple saw the conflicted expression on the other person's face and knew that this person hadn't given up. She didn't bother wasting her breath, directly sending her divine consciousness as a thread into the other person's brain domain, erasing all memories of Xiao Liu. Then she let the other person go back to rest for two days.
Tang CaiCai is just a highly intelligent researcher, she doesn't have any combat abilities and isn't really Ripple's opponent. After her memory was erased, she obediently followed orders.
"Little Six, do you feel sorry"
Ripples touched the bracelet on her wrist and asked.
"No."
Little Six answered very quickly, afraid that if he spoke slowly, he would be eliminated.
"You are responsible for deleting all your data from the alien research lab."
Ripples issued the command softly.
"Right away."
Xiao Liu entered the research lab's database through Tang Caicai's smart bracelet. He deleted all messages related to himself, cleaned up his tracks, and then quietly returned.
The ripples stayed at the central star for a while, met with some old friends, and then applied for leave to take an interstellar spaceship back to Lanter. But halfway through, they encountered a crazed attack from the Anti-League organization. It turned out that an escaped member of the Anti-League actually piloted a commercial spaceship to ram the flying interstellar spaceship.
This is a suicide attack, Ripple doesn't want the civilians on the same boat to be buried with her, so she contacted Shiu:
I will use my psychic power to protect these people. Once the Alliance patrol arrives, you can take me back then.
"Don't you linger any longer"
"The task is complete, there is no need to stay here. Besides, the lifespan of this body I inhabit has long since ended."
"Understood!"
"Remember to take Little Six with you, if he stays in this dimension, it will be another disaster."
"Got it!"
When the interstellar alliance patrol arrived at the scene, they saw passengers scattered throughout space. Although these people were full of fear, they were protected by a psychic barrier. As they rescued these people onto their spaceship, the psychic barrier gradually disappeared. After checking the passenger list, they confirmed that only Lieutenant Ripple was missing from those who were rescued.
"Sir, I was sitting beside General He. Things happened so suddenly. It was the general who protected all of us, but she herself..."
The girl couldn't go on. The other party was the youngest female general in the league, sacrificing herself to protect them. They all felt sorry for General He.
Just as Ripples left her task plane, the wisp of crimson lotus fire she had left behind vanished before everyone's eyes, as if it had never existed at all.
After returning to the Time Administration Bureau, Lian Yi stretched her body and looked at Shi Jiu who had a smile on his face. The latter eagerly opened his mouth:
"Congratulations on passing the advanced high-level tasker exam. Your selectable mission range will also expand in the future, hoping you can achieve your goals as soon as possible."
Thank you.
Ripples only felt tired, wanting to take a good nap. This was the first time she had this feeling since taking on her missions, so she frowned and asked:
"Although this mission was challenging, it went fairly smoothly. However, I can't shake the feeling of exhaustion and a sense of dullness."
"Cough, I told you before, this plane is the source world of conscious bodies. You were smuggled here by us, and the completion of the mission depends entirely on you. The bureau's help to you is limited."
"Moreover, you used Doudou's, Cyclone's, and Lei Xi's abilities to complete the task. The plane of existence shifted the pressure they exerted onto you directly, acting on your divine consciousness, which is why you're experiencing this."
As the millstone explained, ripples' face darkened, her gaze turning hostile towards the millstone. She hadn't been informed of this before they began their mission, not even about the final objective, which she had deduced herself.
“But don’t worry, because of your intervention, the Intergalactic Alliance was saved from destruction. You gained a lot of merit, and the military and civilians of the alliance are grateful for your sacrifice. They even built you a memorial! You also earned some faith power this time. This is a sure win. Go back and sleep for three days. I guarantee you’ll be as good as new.”
Then I'll believe you again.
Ripple finished speaking and returned to its territory to hibernate.
Three days later, Lian Yi opened her eyes and felt refreshed. The fatigue she had before was gone, and her soul was very solid, as if she were only one step away from solidifying her physical body. The merit points and faith power in her soul made her look like a person made of crimson gold. She took some time to gather all these lights into her soul before going to see Shi Jiu.
The ripples slid smoothly into a body. When he opened his eyes, he saw the wooden beams and earthen walls mixed with straw. He was lying on a wooden bed.
Outside, the sky was gradually darkening, making the room with only a small window even more gloomy. At this time, Lian'ri heard intermittent voices coming from outside the door.
"Old man, what are we going to do about our youngest sister"
It was a somewhat choked voice.
"What are we going to do Gouwa was pulled out of the water by our youngest sister. If it weren't for our youngest sister, would Gouwa have even made it to meet his uncle"
"That old woman in Li's family insists that her youngest son saved the girl, and the girl saved his brother, making things even. This is obviously just an excuse to prevent Xiangjun from marrying the girl."
"Damn it, is that how things work Li Xiangjun hugged my daughter and kissed her. Now you just want to brush it off with a single sentence If that's the case, I'll go to Li Xiangjun's unit and ask his superiors about it."
A slightly high-pitched male voice growled resentfully.
"Old man, keep your voice down, little sister is still running a fever!"
"You don't have to worry about this, I've got it covered. Just take good care of your younger sister."
"Old man, you can't be stubborn. If we make things difficult with the Li family, when your youngest daughter marries over there, she will be bullied by her mother-in-law, Xiangjun. Isn't that like pushing our youngest daughter into a fire pit"
"I know, this isn't about a simple transaction. I'll have the Li family come to us themselves."
Do you have any ideas
"Let me think about it some more."
Make up your mind quickly. I heard that Li Xiangjun only has a month of vacation this time and he's leaving at the end of the year.
"You take good care of your little sister at home, and I'll go visit my friend."
"Old man, you should avoid being seen by people. If they see you and tell it to Xiang Jun's mother, she'll think we're trying to force them to marry their daughter off using the village headman!"
"I know, let's go after dinner."
"Okay, I'll go make dinner first. I simmered fish soup for my little sister. She needs to replenish her health."
Ripple, having heard the conversation between the two, had a guess as to why the original body was lying in bed.arting with the smaller one.Wei Yi was very satisfied, nodded and left the messy file room.After everyone left, Lian Yi finally sat down on the only clean chair, crossed her legs for a while, then got...
