"Ah, I'm not that noble," Feng Yi sighed when he posed the question.

Blade Warrior also sighed slightly! She claimed that she had recently become obsessed with theology and that the reason she developed the AI system was to hope that humanity would put more thought into more meaningful things. Of course, this theology was something she saw in a post about guidance spirits on the Virtual Network.

The so-called guidance spirit is akin to an apostle of God. Of course, he is also a regular person, but a guidance spirit can do some things that regular people can't. His arrival could even advance humanity into a higher level of civilization, exiting the Milky Way to pursue the answers from the dawn of the universe.

Unfortunately, this guidance spirit is about to die. The world will end on the day of his departure. In fact, since the fifth sun's 2012, the silent onset of destruction had already begun. Of course, this so-called destruction wasn't actually total annihilation and death; it signified that humanity would lose hope, no longer able to venture beyond the Milky Way to witness the end of the universe, nor trace the depths of the cosmos.

Because after the guidance spirit dies, he will report everything he saw, heard, and felt to God. God will ultimately punish this era that had been banished by Him.

Why is it that some famous greats spend the latter part of their lives delving into theology? Like Einstein, perhaps he was a guidance spirit, who, due to being born at the right time and environment, had room to make a difference. But now, the world is full of deceit, selfishness, greed, and self-interest. Many are touching the moral bottom line for their own gain.

People often talk about justice and selflessness, but think about those greedy faces. People say that releasing life is an act of universal love, yet they do not know that ignorant compassion can turn into killing. Some claim they are noble but engage in deceitful practices, contrary to their words. They have forgotten to abide by conventions and have also discarded traditional virtues. So-called nobility is nothing more than self-righteous bluster.

Of course, prostitutes do not represent vulgarity, and charity is not necessarily noble. The vulgarity of prostitutes is just exchanging the body for a valued chip, while the unknown behind hidden charity might seek more benefits. Morality is merely a product born from humans binding themselves with their loftily righteous morals—in fact, anyone can become a noble guidance spirit, as long as they act according to their true nature, striving for a clear conscience.

Blade Warrior said a few off-topic remarks with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, and she added that perhaps the guidance spirit himself didn't know his own identity.

The topic has gone off on a tangent, thought Feng Yi, believing that his physical condition may indeed be failing, but he was neither so noble and great, nor did he possess such extensive knowledge. Being true to himself was real, however. More than these, he was looking forward to the investigation results from Yita 13.

Inside the technology laboratory, Yita 13 was stripped clean, and after a long observation with scanning equipment, Blade Warrior, donning a white lab coat and propping her pointed chin, kept eyeing the constantly rolling numbers on the computer, sometimes frowning, sometimes nodding or shaking her head… which piqued Feng Yi's curiosity.

Feng Yi asked her, "Find anything?"

Blade Warrior explained, "I watched your fight. Yita 13's combat power isn't very strong, but it isn't weak either. She's far from me, but her intelligence level is very high, and she is equipped with a self-destruct bomb inside."

Feng Yi's brow furrowed, he had considered these issues himself, and his guess turned out to be correct, "How powerful is the bomb?"

"Not sure," Blade Warrior shook her head, "I haven't dissected the insides yet. But judging by the outer super-metal material structure, the safety of this bomb is very strong, and its explosive power should be tremendous!"

What the hell, Feng Yi gasped inwardly at the idea of a bomb described as tremendously powerful by Blade Warrior. He looked left and right, searching for any chance to escape the explosion at the last moment or if Yita 13 made any move. Tentatively, Feng Yi inquired, "How, how big exactly is the blast?"

"Destroy the Freedom Port of Maraca."

How could that be possible? The Freedom Port of Maraca was a Class-Earth planet. Feng Yi's expression changed immediately upon hearing this. "You're lying to me."

Indeed, Blade Warrior continued in her slow, measured tone, "It's impossible." She made it clear that she was just messing with the naive young man.

Feng Yi sat on the ground like a salted fish, finally letting out a breath of relief...

During the subsequent research, Blade Warrior also discovered that Yita-13 was indeed an intelligent robot and that Yita-13 had a very strong learning ability and independent personality. Of course, this was discovered after performing brain surgery on Yita-13. Unlike Eggy and herself, who were derived from intelligent 'humans,' Yita-13, besides being a recorder, did not possess the power that intelligent life could control, which could also be explained by insufficient hardware.

It was like comparing two identical people. Blade Warrior could modify herself to traverse the Virtual Network, searching its ocean for all secrets she wanted to know at the fastest speed. Of course, Eggy could do this as well, but Blade Warrior couldn't be bothered to act like that. Once she penetrated the Virtual Network, she had to keep a trace of consciousness in her body; otherwise, in the event of a power outage or similar situations, her consciousness in the virtual realm would be severed from her, unless reconnected.

Yita-13 was different. She did not possess that function. Once modified and entering the network, she would no longer be the same as before. That was the key difference between Yita-13, herself, and Eggy.

Well, the technologies developed by Saudi were truly formidable. Blade Warrior was unable for a time to crack the core engineering of this artificial program. However, she had completely removed the bomb inside Yita-13 and altered the force-command program. In some respects, she shared a resonance with Yita, right?

When Yita-13 awoke, it was already evening; Feng Yi had long since left. However, her memory was not lost. "I should still have been fighting Revenge Shadow Rider when this happened. Where am I?" Yita shook her head and murmured with a pleasant yet somewhat guarded voice...

"This is my technical laboratory. You can leave now, of course, after making a pledge to abide by the law."

"Abide by the law...? Why am I here, what have you done to me, and what kind of assurances do you want from me? Please give me an answer." Yita was completely baffled by these nonsensical words, her gaze filled with confusion.

"Well, to put it simply, you went to duel Revenge Shadow Rider, completely outmatched, and as it happens, I know Revenge Shadow Rider. So, he sent you over to me. That guy is not a bad person. And me, I'm fundamentally the same as you, also a robot." To make Yita believe, Blade Warrior's liquid metal skin transformed into a haughty black panther and, in the blink of an eye, reverted back to human form.

Beholding her graceful curves and skin so detailed it showed pores, Yita could hardly believe that there was an intelligence more authentic than herself in the world. Despite this, her gaze still carried a tinge of sadness. "I will not make any assurances. My mission is to kill Revenge Shadow Rider, even if it means dying with him. That is my mission, so farewell."

"The control device and self-destruct device inside your body have been removed by me; now you're a free robot, completely uncontrollable and uncoerced by anyone."

Yita covered her chest in surprise, realizing that the self-destruction device was long gone. As for the force commands, she couldn't sense them, but given the other party could remove the self-destruct bomb, there was no need for deceit in this matter.

"What do you want me to do?" Yita-13 had a shallow understanding of emotions. She only knew Blade Warrior had helped her, and she must offer an equivalent sacrifice in exchange. That was the independence of Yita-13's personality.
