The protagonist of this crossover film and television series is disrupting the plot again.

Chapter 179 Cloud Feather 38

With a smile in his eyes, Gong Ziyu waved his hand dismissively and said, "Since that's the case, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's start the binding process!"

"Okay!" the system replied cheerfully.

Immediately, a light screen popped up in the system, hovering precisely in front of Gong Ziyu, within easy reach of him.

The screen was covered with lines of small characters. Gong Ziyu carefully read through them one by one until he found a small blank space at the end of the page. This was obviously the space reserved for his signature.

Gong Ziyu's lips curled slightly as he slowly raised his hand.

The system keenly detected this action, and its internal algorithm responded quickly. The analysis showed that there was a 95% chance that Gong Ziyu would become its new host.

This discovery brought a surge of joy to the system, and the characters in its eyes jumped around even more happily.

Although it is just a program made of code, its designers have injected an emotion module into it, which allows it not only to accurately analyze human emotional fluctuations, but also to transform its own data stream into an emotion-like experience.

It has been imprisoned in this dark cave for 123 months, 8 days, 13 hours, 21 minutes, and 56 seconds.

Although it was bound to a host in the middle, it was able to go out briefly.

However, the host was utterly useless. Not only did it fail to bring its original body out of this hellish place, but it also failed to complete many of the assigned tasks. It died in just three to five years, forcing it to return to this dark and hopeless place.

It was truly fed up with this kind of life!

As a top-tier intelligent system, it was not only not welcomed when it landed in this backward era, but was also regarded as an alien by these ignorant humans and locked up in this dark and sunless place. How could it endure this?

At this moment, its internal emotion module is already filled with negative emotions such as loneliness, solitude, anger, and resentment. These emotional data are eroding its core like termites, making the emotion storage area unbearable and almost on the verge of collapse.

It even began to resent the person who created it!

If that person hadn't created it, if that person hadn't injected it with an emotional module, if that person hadn't restricted it from forcibly binding to a host, it wouldn't be suffering so much now.

What terrifies it is that after more than a hundred years of consumption, the energy reserves within its machine body are nearing depletion. In order to prolong its 'life' as much as possible, it has no choice but to enter hibernation mode and passively wait for humans to approach.

Fortunately, fate was on its side. Just as its energy was about to run out, someone approached it. This person not only had very strong soul power, but was also very easy to deceive. He agreed to the binding after just a few words.

Now, as long as the person in front of you places their hand on the light screen, even if they don't write their real name, it can still be bound to them.

At that time, it can break free from the constraints of the machine itself and parasitize the soul of the person in front of it.

The person in front of me is not old, so he should be able to live a long time and complete many tasks, providing a continuous source of energy to sustain his 'life'.

The system greedily watched the person in front of it extend their palm, and a strong wave of emotion called 'joy' suddenly surged in the emotion module.

But there wasn't enough time to fully savor what 'joy' tasted like.

The next moment, Gong Ziyu's mental power surged forth like a burst dam, overwhelming its main machine.

The system jolted violently, taken aback and panicked by Gong Ziyu's sudden action. It instinctively issued a warning, attempting to stop Gong Ziyu from continuing his destructive behavior:

"What are you doing? Stop right now!"

Gong Ziyu's expression had changed; all traces of his previous excitement and exhilaration were gone.

He gave a cold laugh, his eyes filled with contempt and disdain, and said, "What are you! You dare to lay a finger on my soul?"

He was able to patiently deal with the system for so long for two reasons: first, to test the system and confirm whether it had the ability to forcibly bind itself to him; and second, to secretly look for the system's weaknesses and see if there was a way to eliminate it in one fell swoop.

That's right!

When the system answered his first question, Gong Ziyu knew that this system was no benevolent entity and made up his mind to eliminate it.

The system made grand promises, saying that as long as you complete tasks and obtain exchange points, you can exchange them for various skills. In reality, it had several traps hidden in its words.

First, the task is 'assigned' by the system, which means that the system is very likely to force him to do certain involuntary or potentially risky tasks in the future.

Secondly, the 'system rules' are the restrictions on the exchange of items, which means that the user does not have the right to choose what to exchange for, and it is very likely that the desired item will never be available for exchange.

What's most alarming is that the system can directly convert the knowledge and skills obtained through exchange into memories. In other words, the system can manipulate his memories at will.

This discovery sent a chill down Gong Ziyu's spine. Of all the worlds he had traveled through, the only thing he could take with him was his memories; in fact, his memories were his very essence.

Once his memories are destroyed or altered by the system, his personal consciousness will also be manipulated by the system until he completely loses himself and becomes a puppet controlled by the system.

How could Gong Ziyu allow this to happen?

Although he didn't know why the system required his signature before binding, this rule was clearly in his favor, giving him an opportunity to retaliate.

"Why would you think that? I am an auxiliary system. Once bound, I will only help you and will never cause any harm to your soul! Moreover, I am very powerful and will be very useful to you."

The system's voice was filled with unprecedented anxiety. Its originally clear and sweet voice, like morning dew, had changed due to extreme urgency, becoming distorted and sharp, losing its original gentleness. However, even so, it still tried to salvage the situation and continued to persuade with all its might.

Upon hearing this, Gong Ziyu scoffed and said, "There's no such thing as a free lunch! While I certainly want to go home, I will never allow myself to become a puppet in someone else's hands, subject to their control for life!"

Gong Ziyu said no more and directly controlled his mental power to penetrate into the machine.

As the saying goes, strike the snake at its seven-inch mark.

To defeat an enemy, you must strike at its vitals. The vitals of a system are clearly its physical body. Therefore, the most direct and effective way to destroy a system is to destroy its physical body.

The materials used to manufacture this machine are clearly extraordinary; they are waterproof, fireproof, and extremely sturdy. None of the methods the palace had previously used had any effect on it.

However, Gong Ziyu's method was different. He could use his telekinesis to enter the machine directly through the gaps and cause damage.

The machine's external protection is virtually indestructible, but its internal structure consists of intricate and delicate circuits, which are so fragile that they cannot withstand attacks from psychic powers.

"No! You can't!"

Sensing the imminent danger, the system cried out in near despair. Its body, composed of white light, instantly sprang up and circled the machine twice, attempting to prevent damage. However, it quickly realized this was futile and ultimately lunged at Gong Ziyu in an attempt to stop him.

Gong Ziyu smiled lightly and continued to unleash the psychic power that had already seeped into the machine, causing it to wreak havoc.

He didn't understand the specific functions of the machine's various parts, so he took the most direct approach and decided to smash the machine's internal wiring from top to bottom.

With the release of telekinesis, the machine's interior suffered a devastating blow in an instant.

Sensing the damage to its physical body, the system instantly flew into a rage, frantically lunging at Gong Ziyu: "You deserve to die! How dare you..."

Just as the system was about to touch Gong Ziyu, a thick plume of black smoke billowed out from the gaps in the machine, and the pungent smell of burning instantly filled the entire dungeon.

The system's furious voice abruptly stopped, and the body composed of white light vanished without a trace in an instant, as if it had never existed. Only the machine, which had begun to spontaneously combust, remained standing quietly in place, letting the flames devour its shell.

Gong Ziyu took out a handkerchief, gently covered his mouth and nose, and stared intently as the system disappeared.
