Chapter 3178: Oh, Ever-Changing Water

Hearing you say that just makes me even more anxious.

Epiphanies are things that come by chance, not by seeking.

Ning Shu left the trading hall empty-handed.

Faith power and all that—she’d better save it. After all, she might need it later.

Ning Shu sat down, planning to keep comprehending the water ordinance.

If she could, great. If not, then forget it. Even if she stressed, it wouldn’t help anyway.

She sat cross-legged, feeling the ripples of the water… and fell asleep again.

When she woke up, Ning Shu jumped up and said to 2333, “Let’s set aside comprehending this for now.”

In this state, even reading made her sleepy. As for comprehending ordinances? She didn’t grasp a single fart.

All she felt was water gently swaying, lulling her into drowsiness.

Oh, ever-changing water.

Ning Shu returned to the system space.

She looked at the black hole in the wall and casually picked something up to throw into it.

The black hole rippled slightly and swallowed the item.

Ning Shu sighed, sat on the sofa, and heard a ding-dong from the chat notification.

Someone had sent her a message.

She opened it. It was from Wen Xing’s system.

System 65892: Dear, are you there? My master has something he’d like your help with. It’s like this—the monsters in that world are spreading too fast and are getting out of control. He’d like to ask for your assistance.

Ning Shu was stunned reading the message. She figured she wouldn’t be of much use.

Ning Shu replied: Didn’t the higher-ups send anyone? What can I do with my level of strength?

System 65892: They did send someone. If it’s inconvenient for you, then never mind. Sorry to bother you, I’ll go now.

The black cube on the bookshelf moved slightly, and Ning Shu was a bit surprised.

She grabbed it to take a look.

This was the artificial intelligence lifeform born from a super civilization.

Now that it moved, was it waking up?

Ning Shu hadn’t expected it to awaken.

She also felt like it was currently draining her mental energy.

It really did seem like there was activity.

Before, it just sat there like a corpse. Now, it had come back to life.

Ning Shu wasn’t about to let it keep absorbing her mental energy.

She placed the black cube on the coffee table.

2333 said: “Since it wants mental energy and Wen Xing asked you for help, why not lend him this cube? It’s a win-win.”

Ning Shu narrowed her eyes. “Let it go absorb someone else’s mental energy?”

“It might not necessarily need to absorb other people’s mental energy. Since it’s an artificial intelligence, it surely has a way to deal with this kind of thing,” 2333 said.

The black artificial intelligence moved slightly on the table. She just didn’t know whether Wen Xing could control it.

If something went wrong, the blame would fall on her.

Ning Shu tossed the cube up and down, then flipped it back and forth.

If the artificial intelligence were a person, it would’ve thrown up from all the tossing.

Ning Shu didn’t know whether to trust 2333, and asked, “How could this thing destroy those monsters?”

“By using mental energy to directly annihilate them. If the monsters are annihilated, it can absorb their mental energy.”

“All living beings act based on mental and bioelectrical signals,” 2333 said. “If you can learn to control the artificial intelligence lifeform, it’ll be useful to you in the future.”

“Can you guarantee it’ll only absorb the monsters’ mental energy and not people’s? If something really happens, the responsibility falls on me,” Ning Shu said while tossing the cube.

“Then I’ll try to communicate with it. As long as it’s a living being, there’s always a way to communicate,” 2333 said.

Ning Shu remembered her skill that let her communicate with intelligent lifeforms, and said, “Let me try.”
