Chapter 3, The Mysterious Fate Intelligence Brain
Lan Xue now feels quite strange; she does not know why. Although it is not the first time she has looked into Lin Luo's eyes, this time seems different from the previous two. This time, Lin Luo's gaze appears particularly profound, and it subtly emanates an indescribable charm.
"Lin Luo was not wrong; it has truly changed." After a moment, Zi Ye released Lan Xue's hand and gently said, furrowing her willow-like brows
Zi Ye is currently focused on driving, his eyes fixed ahead, which reassures Lin Luo considerably. He no longer dares to meet Zi Ye's gaze and is somewhat afraid of being looked at with that enchanting, magical stare.
"Very well, Lan Xue, please assist in entertaining Miss Ziye. I have some matters to attend to and must step out for a while," Lin Luo said after a brief hesitation.
◇◇◇◇
◇◇◇◇
I am not even an assistant fate manipulator now!" Lin Luo snorted and said, "Next time you research, please make sure to check clearly; the rank of a fate manipulator must be ascended level by level!
Lin Luo has always been curious about the exact state in which Xiao Hui exists. It is clearly worn on his hand, yet it can still access the internet. He has no idea how it connects to the network. However, the very existence of Xiao Hui is already quite strange, so Lin Luo has begun to take other odd occurrences related to it in stride.
Forget it, I believe you are. Lin Luo felt somewhat depressed; he always had a sense that there seemed to be a pair of invisible eyes watching everything he did, and perhaps even manipulating everything about him
In fact, if he were truly my boyfriend, it might not be so bad after all! A thought suddenly sprang up in Lan Xue's mind, and her fair face couldn't help but blush slightly
Are there no other options? Lin Luo couldn't help but ask
◇◇◇◇
Throughout the journey, Lin Luo remained silent, and Zi Ye did not speak either, only occasionally glancing at Lin Luo with the corner of her eye.
Ah, Lin Luo, are you ready?" Lan Xue softly called out, her cheeks flushing. She felt somewhat hesitant to look at Lin Luo, fearing that he might see through her thoughts.
"Where to?" Zi Ye asked, looking at Lin Luo with a curious gaze.
However, Xiao Hui was unwilling to disclose its own abilities, stating only that it would reveal them only if Lin Luo was prepared to become a usurper of fate
"Where is Lin Luo, Blue Girl?" Upon seeing Lan Xue, Zi Ye asked, having entered without even ringing the doorbell, leaving him puzzled about how she managed to get in.
A faint, refreshing fragrance wafted from beside him, a scent that Lin Luo had never encountered before. He couldn't help but glance at Ziye, wondering what kind of perfume she was wearing that smelled so delightful. He was contemplating whether to buy a bottle of such perfume as a gift for Lin Shuang.
But what? Lin Luo couldn't help but ask
Lin Luo, oh Lin Luo, if you fail this time, you can forget about becoming a Fate Alterer for the rest of your life!" Zi Ye thought to himself. In reality, there are multiple opportunities to be assessed as a Fate Alterer. However, if Lin Luo cannot change Lan Xue's fate this time, he will certainly face difficulties from Zi Ye in any future assessments.
"No matter how great the intelligent brain is, it is still created by humans. You are an intelligent brain, and I am a human from mhetushucomcom. The problems you cannot solve do not mean that I cannot solve them," Lin Luo said irritably.
"Brother Lin, why are you asking this? Have you already decided to become a usurper of fate?" Once Xiao Hui is locked in the box, it knows nothing of the outside world, but as long as it is in Lin Luo's hands, it can communicate with Lin Luo using language
"It's quite simple. As long as you haven't locked me up, if you can see someone's life trajectory, I can see it too," Xiao Hui said lazily. "Alright, I already know how you fate manipulators are assessed. Who is your assessment medium? Take me to see it!"
Now it's time to consider your choice: is it to let another girl you don't know be raped, or to let Lan Xue be raped
What should I do then? Lin Luo became somewhat agitated, and suddenly his body trembled as he urgently asked, "Xiao Hui, can you see my future fate?"
Lin Luo smiled awkwardly, unaware that Zi Ye was not joking; she genuinely wanted the fare. Those familiar with Miss Zi Ye know that she has a peculiar obsession with money, and very few can take advantage of her in financial matters. Today, in Zi Ye's eyes, Lin Luo had already taken a significant advantage.
After sending off the last client, Ziye let out a slight sigh of relief and inwardly cursed the young scion from earlier. That person had not come to seek her for a life-altering consultation, but rather to engage her in conversation. Fortunately, she charged for her conversations as well; otherwise, she would have truly suffered a loss
After a while, Ziye still felt somewhat uneasy, so she dialed Lanxue's phone number
Of course, I am the greatest destiny intellect!" Little Gray exclaimed narcissistically.
Although the origins of this object are unknown, Lin Luo could not help but feel curious and put on the watch. To his surprise, as soon as he wore it, the watch began to speak, claiming to be a Fate Intelligence Brain, here to assist Lin Luo in becoming the greatest fate manipulator. However, when Lin Luo inquired about its origins, this so-called great Fate Intelligence Brain was equally clueless.
I mean, my ability is to calculate how many ways there are to change a person's destiny based on their life trajectory, and I can also determine what impact each method will have on space-time. " Xiao Hui said somewhat aggrieved, "In simple terms, I can calculate the butterfly effect caused by altering fate.
After a period of time, Lin Luo gradually discovered that this Fate Intelligence Brain, also known as Xiao Hui, could only speak when worn on his left hand. According to Xiao Hui's own assessment, there was something special within Lin Luo's left hand that could activate it
I have already attended the qualification assessment for the assistant fate manipulator today. Now I am facing a problem; I must change a person's fate in order to pass the assessment. Lin Luo said淡淡, "Since you are the Fate Intelligence Brain, I think perhaps you can provide me with some assistance."
"Fenghua Grand Hotel," Lin Luo said softly. He couldn't help but glance at Ziye, only to find her looking at him. Their eyes met, and he quickly turned his head to the book, his heart racing, too afraid to look at her again.
"Blue Girl, it's me, what? Just wait, I'll be there soon!" After answering the call, Zi Ye's expression changed slightly after a few words. After asking a few more questions, she hung up the phone and hurried out.
"Is the first one at eight o'clock tonight? Her mother has been readmitted to the hospital, and she needs to go to the hospital," Lin Luo pondered for a moment and asked.
If Lan Xue goes to the hospital, a second fate trajectory point will emerge; at twelve o'clock at night, she will go out to buy something. Lin Luo said slowly, "What if Lan Xue stays in the hospital? What consequences will arise?"
"I am sorry, Lin Luo, but Lin Shuang is not opening the door, and I have no way to persuade her." Upon seeing Lin Luo come downstairs, Lan Xue raised her head and spoke in a somewhat apologetic tone
This cannot be blamed on you. Lin Luo smiled wryly, walked over to sit beside Lan Xue, and said, "Lan Xue, take another look at my eyes."
There was nothing much to do for the time being, and she couldn't help but think of Lan Xue. About a month ago, out of sheer boredom, she had predicted Lan Xue's future and discovered the tragic fate that awaited her. Not only did she have a good relationship with Lan Xue, but as a fellow woman, she also did not wish to see Lan Xue meet such a grim end. However, due to the constraints of the Fate Manipulator's Code, she was unable to actively alter Lan Xue's fate or inform her of the future that lay ahead.
What? Lin Luo's heart trembled. For a fate manipulator, the greatest trouble lies in the inability to accurately predict the butterfly effect. Therefore, actions intended to alter fate often end in failure due to unforeseen consequences of the butterfly effect. If what Xiao Hui said is true, then Lin Luo will become the only fate manipulator capable of accurately predicting the outcomes of the butterfly effect
"Blue girl, it seems you have already placed a lot of trust in him?" Zi Ye asked, looking at Lan Xue with some surprise.
"He is up there, Miss Ziye. Thank you so much for coming all the way here for my sake." Lan Xue's heart was filled with gratitude. Although Ziye always affectionately referred to her as 'Lan girl,' she remained very polite towards Ziye. In her eyes, Ziye would always be her idol, someone she should respect.
After much contemplation, Lin Luo finally devised a potentially feasible solution. Since he could not find a resolution from the trajectory of Lan Xue's fate itself, he thought that perhaps he could discover a method through the three individuals who were likely to be strong and violent towards Lan Xue. Therefore, what he needed to do now was to seek out those three people
"It is not impossible; if you could traverse time and space and return to a certain point in the past, change would still be possible. Unfortunately, it seems you do not possess such an ability," Xiao Hui said lazily. "Therefore, I advise you to choose the first life trajectory point."
Hmm, I believe you!" Lan Xue nodded heavily. Lin Luo's confident tone and demeanor instilled much more confidence in Lan Xue
Lin Luo felt a slight stir in his heart, and a thought emerged. However, since it was unrelated to the matter concerning Lan Xue, he had to temporarily suppress it and refrain from discussing it.
Lan Xue nodded and did not ask further questions
"Lin Luo, when did your precognitive ability manifest?" As they waited for the red light, Zi Ye suddenly inquired.
"For the sake of Lan Xue, I won't charge you for the fare today." The sports car sped away, and Zi Ye's voice also reached Lin Luo's ears
How can I convey a person's life trajectory to you? Lin Luo recalled the matter of Lan Xue and couldn't help but ask again. The life trajectory can be said to be something that can only be understood intuitively and cannot be expressed in words; it is fundamentally impossible to communicate through language or text. This is why Lin Luo posed such a question
However, at this moment, Lin Luo encountered a problem; there were very few taxis coming in and out of this area. After all, in such a wealthy neighborhood, most residents have their own private cars, and taxis do not come here to seek business. Left with no other choice, Lin Luo decided to run to the subway station
Even I, a great destiny intellect, cannot solve this; it is useless for you to think about it! Little Gray is clearly very confident
Lin Luo smiled apologetically at Ziye, then turned and hurriedly left. The situation was urgent, and he had no time for further explanations. Moreover, in front of Ziye, he felt somewhat at a loss for words.
I will think it over again Lin Luo said softly Although the first choice seems to be the best if saving Lan Xue means causing another girl to suffer an undeserved disaster he cannot reconcile this with his conscience
Indeed, if you had prevented Lan Xue from going to the hospital, the subsequent events would not have occurred, but... " Xiao Hui paused at this point
"Miss Ziye, what brings you here?" Upon seeing Ziye, Lin Luo was taken aback. After a brief moment of being captivated by her charm, he then asked.
However, on that night, another girl would suffer the same fate as Lan Xue. The result of your usurpation of Lan Xue's fate is, in fact, the transference of her destiny onto another. " Xiao Hui hesitated slightly and said, "Nevertheless, for you, the task can be considered accomplished."
After waiting for nearly a month, she finally had someone come for the assessment. Such a good opportunity was not to be missed, so this somewhat dull-looking Lin Luo became Lan Xue's lifeline.
However, I must declare in advance that I can only perform calculations; I do not possess the ability to foresee fate. Therefore, you must first tell me about the other person's life trajectory. " Xiao Hui continued, "But, Brother Lin, why are you only an assistant fate-altering master? When I went out a few days ago, I checked the information, and fate-altering masters are primarily classified based on their ability to foresee fate. It seems you can foresee a complete life trajectory, right?"
So, we can only choose the third trajectory point? Lin Luo felt a slight heaviness in her heart, at two o'clock in the morning, when the criminals appeared, to subdue those criminals
Thank you, Miss Ziye. Lin Luo hesitated for a moment before getting into the car
The eighty-eighth floor of the Fate Building is home to the Fate Agency of Ziye. Inside the agency, there is only Ziye. However, the eighty-eighth floor hosts only this one fate agency, as everyone knows that if a fate agency were to open on this floor, it would surely have no business, because everyone would flock to Ziye's place.
"Lin Luo, Miss Ziye has come for my matter," Lan Xue said hastily
Upon learning about Lan Xue's past, Lin Luo's impression of her changed significantly. She is not only beautiful but also kind-hearted. For the sake of her family, she has given up much. Despite possessing extraordinary beauty, she has not succumbed to decadence, but has instead maintained her purity.
I can't see it. I am unable to predict fate on my own; I must rely on your abilities. However, since you cannot see your own life trajectory, naturally, I cannot foresee your future destiny either!" Xiao Hui said weakly, "Of course, if someone else's fate is related to you, I should be able to see the part that concerns her and you.
Just as Ziye was about to say something, Lin Luo's door upstairs suddenly opened, and Lin Luo hurriedly walked out.
"It's all right, Lan Xue, you can rest assured. I guarantee that you will be fine." Lin Luo smiled slightly, and his attitude towards Lan Xue had noticeably improved. Of course, his previous attitude towards her was not bad either
This time, from her eyes, Lin Luo saw the complete trajectory of her life, from birth to death. The events of the past and those that were about to unfold in the future appeared one by one in his mind, with images flashing rapidly until the moment she leaped from the tower of fate and fell to her death, at which point it finally came to a halt. The life of an eighteen-year-old came to an end.
Doo-doo, two honks sounded beside him. Lin Luo turned his head and couldn't help but be slightly taken aback. A red sports car was parked there, and sitting in the car was none other than Zi Ye.
Lan Xue softly murmured in acknowledgment, her beautiful eyes fixed on Lin Luo, seemingly containing a hint of subtle affection.
Well then, if you can solve it, I will be at ease to be your little brother from now on. Otherwise, you can just call me big brother in the future!" Xiao Hui said with a grin.
I understand, you are quite verbose! Little Gray was clearly a bit impatient
You can just be my brain, little brother is unnecessary; I do not wish to have a machine as my subordinate. Lin Luo snorted, but his mind was racing, as he needed to devise a method that would not only spare Lan Xue from misfortune but also avoid causing trouble for other innocent people.
Just as Lin Luo was deep in thought, an unexpected guest had already arrived at his home, none other than the infinitely charming Miss Ziye
Lin Luo said nothing further and walked out the door. The door to Lin Shuang's bedroom remained tightly closed, while Lan Xue sat in the living room downstairs, lost in thought.
Lin Luo said nothing further and got up to return to the bedroom
"Hmm, I believe him," Lan Xue nodded, yet a hint of blush unconsciously flashed across her face. However, the careless Miss Zi Ye did not notice Lan Xue's unusual reaction.
The vehicle had just entered Pearl Avenue when it soon encountered a red light. Pearl Avenue is one of the main thoroughfares in Pearl City, characterized by heavy traffic; however, it is rarely congested
Lin Luo hurriedly ran out of the garden villa community, not even acknowledging Zhou Yuntao's greeting.
"Hey, I've said it many times, I really don't know where I came from. The first time I became aware, I was already on your hand. As for your matters, I've known about them for a long time in my memory!" Xiao Hui expressed some dissatisfaction with Lin Luo's doubts.
"How do you know so much?" Lin Luo's expression changed slightly, "Where exactly do you come from?"
"Is that so? Then I will check online," Xiao Hui said to himself.
In the complete life trajectory of Lan Xue, there are a total of 20,001 life trajectory points. From now until the end of her life, there are still three life trajectory points remaining. Xiao Hui spent a full half hour calculating before arriving at this conclusion. Now, I will analyze them with you one by one.
Zi Ye pondered for a moment, then took Blue Snow's small hand and held it gently
"Hey, hurry up and tell me, what abilities do you actually possess? If you don't speak, I will lock you up and never let you out again!" Lin Luo said with a dissatisfied huff. This so-called intelligent brain, who knows who produced it; it must be from aliens. At least, with the current technological level on Earth, no one should be able to produce such a highly intelligent brain.
"Brother Lin, you still haven't told me why you are only the lowest-ranked assistant necromancer!" Xiao Hui, not having received an answer, was determined not to give up.
"I can show you, but first, I must declare that you cannot speak," Lin Luo said after a moment of thought. "I do not want anyone to know of your existence"
The origin of Xiao Hui is as mysterious as the person who secretly funded Lin Luo. One morning a year ago, he woke up to find a strange box on his bedside table. Upon opening the box, he discovered this watch, and nothing else was found.
Lin Luo gently cleared his throat, bringing Lan Xue back from her daydreaming.
She will still be raped, and along with her, there is also a nurse from the hospital who will be raped. " Xiao Hui said lazily, "So, this method is definitely not feasible."
Lin Luo not only has the ability to foresee a person's fate, but also knows everything that has happened in that person's past. However, according to his understanding, fate manipulators should only possess the ability to predict fate and not the ability to recreate the past. Therefore, he has always had a sense that he is somewhat different from the fate manipulators.
Focusing intently on the appearances of the three individuals, Lin Luo quickly discovered their current residence. This unique ability of his is, in fact, unrelated to the fate-altering practitioners. In reality, as long as Lin Luo concentrates on the image of any person, he can accurately locate that individual's position. However, in practice, Lin Luo seldom employs this ability
Miss Ziye, Lin Luo said that I will definitely be fine
It still won't work. Even if you subdue the assailant, in fifteen minutes, Lan Xue will be assaulted by a doctor at the hospital. Of course, this time her fate is somewhat better; she will only be assaulted by one person instead of the original three. " Xiao Hui's voice once again struck a blow to Lin Luo's confidence, "Moreover, at that time, you will be entangled with another person and unable to spare the effort to save her.
The allure of Ziye is lethal to any man, and Lin Luo is no exception. However, he possesses a degree of self-awareness; given his status, it is impossible for him to move Ziye. Moreover, in his heart, there lingers an indelible figure. Although Ziye is extraordinarily captivating and difficult for him to forget, he is not so easily smitten by her at first sight.
◇◇◇◇
"Little handsome guy, get in the car!" Ziye tilted his head slightly and said to Lin Luo
