Chapter 35: Xiao Qing, Considering You Were Manufactured in Our Factory… Advanced Lifeform Selection Tournament, Ring 6. Rhine stared at Dongfang Qingdi as he strapped a vital-signs monitor to his own wrist, looking as if he wanted to say something, but held back. In the adjacent ring was a star contender from Yangzhou City who had made it into the Top 50 last year. Before she had even stepped up, a massive crowd had gathered around her area. The clamor was immense, with spectators practically…-

Chapter 36: He’s a Man; Theoretically, He Can’t Bear Children. From the preliminary rounds to the semifinals, there were five rounds of fights to win, and Dongfang Qingdi won them without any difficulty whatsoever. Compared to winning, what proved far more difficult for him was pretending to have a back-and-forth, evenly matched fight with his opponents. He couldn't win too easily, nor did he want to let the other party touch him. As a result, Dongfang Qingdi had no choice but to flash and…

Chapter 14: "You’re Only Telling Me This Now...?" Xiang Nanli, with the flashlight clamped between his teeth, walked through the transmission conduit, which resembled a giant water pipe. He asked: "Alpha, do I look like Mario the plumber to you?" "Alpha, do you know who Mario is?" "Alpha, everyone has a built-in AI nowadays; is this considered a 'companion beast' like in those fantasy novels? Are these AIs newly produced, or are they inherited from dead people? Do you AIs have levels? Did I…

Chapter 15: The Lurker Xiang Nanli’s head poked out from the conduit vent, looking remarkably like that irritating mole from a Whack-A-Mole game. He was dangling upside-down from the ceiling, looking down at the floor, which featured a conveyor belt that resembled an airport baggage carousel, hanging three or four meters below him. The belt was stalled, its tracks littered with debris. Thanks to the genetic serum, Xiang Nanli’s otherwise frail body could handle this kind of prolonged, upside-down…

Edited by Xue-- Chapter 37: His Heart Beat Because of Xiang Nanli Most buildings in the Eternal City were earth-brick flat-roofed houses, with half of their structures buried underground. The construction costs for these houses were very low, and their heat retention was excellent, making them extremely popular among the city's residents. Here, only a select few could live in the "Main City District"—such as distinguished guests, individuals who had made outstanding contributions to the…

Chapter 68: “Your teacher is very beautiful.” For a robot, what exactly counted as suicide? Xiang Nanli had read the history of the Human Alliance. There was a period of time when robots frequently created panic by self-destructing. A service robot that was smiling and chatting warmly with you one second could take you out in an explosion the next. Robots had no life; they merely acted according to their programming. Omnics, however, understood clearly that death was universally the most…

Chapter 38: Which Line of Code Went Wrong? After saying that, Xiang Nanli drifted off into a groggy sleep. He had only woken up for a brief moment. Before falling back asleep, a thought flashed through Xiang Nanli's mind: Since Dongfang Qingdi is leaving, I should order a domestic housekeeping robot once I get back to Gusu City. He had saved up just enough money anyway. With his current income level, he could easily afford a higher-end model. He just didn't know if any would be as human-like as…

Chapter 69: "Yo, Comrade War Criminal. Haven't..." Xiang Nanli bent over, hands resting on his knees. He looked back and forth between the moldy seeds on the ground and Beichen, who was squatting in front of the seeds deep in thought, his eyes brimming with anticipation. These seeds varied in size, some large and some small, but all were equally shriveled. After observing for a long time, Beichen spoke: "Fortunately, the temperature was low enough. You can't say they're completely useless. Extract…

Chapter 39: They Were Not Equal Comrades-in-Arms with the Omnics—They Were Merely Protected Monkeys The signal emitted by the Omnic was extremely faint, lasting for only those few short seconds while the gate was open. Yet, Dongfang Qingdi still managed to capture that brief segment of encrypted radio waves. From it, Dongfang Qingdi decoded the Omnic's model, serial number, and distress message: — Apostle III: Gospel No. 1.2.5. — Damage level: 89%. Requesting assistance. Xiang Nanli…

Chapter 40: The Eternal City "Permission verification passed." The heavy gates opened outward to both sides, and the shuttle carried its passengers into the Main City. The outer perimeter of the Eternal City had been all yellow dirt and gray dust, resembling an uncivilized medieval village where even the latrines were open-air. Unexpectedly, the Main City featured far more modern technology, with streetlights lining the roads. Bright light spilled from the windows of the castle, suggesting that…
