Chapter 701 - Passing Over the Plane
Chapter 701: Passing Over the Plane
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shen Ying became a true boss,. The kind that couldn’t even be controlled by the Chaos Void itself. For Lonemoon, this was nothing out of the ordinary.
╮(╯_╰)╭
“Actually, Little Ying this time…” Shen Jing scanned a certain someone who was still munching on potato chips opposite from her. Shen Jing cleared her mind and pulled out all the information she had regarding the Chaos Void. after sighing, she said, “This judge…” Shen Jing was being put in quite a spot given her new job as the judge.
“Is it very troublesome?” Shen Ying asked instinctively. She just had to clear up the messes between all the planes. This made her not that much different from monitors.
“Nonsense!” Shen Jing rolled her eyes. “Although planes rarely come into contact with one another, we can’t rule out managers who stir trouble on purpose. Or even… monitors.” She seemed to realise something as she frowned. “There are countless planes within the Chaos Void. I don’t know how many problems there are waiting for me to solve.” At the end of the day, all these things just spelled trouble.
From the looks of it, Shen Ying was not the biggest problem Shen Jing had. There were way too many things happening within the Chaos Void. Little Ying was special, but Shen Jing knew her character best. She would definitely not do anything that would harm her plane.
“Elder Shen, can’t you sense where the dangers in the void are?” Yi Qing could not help ut ask. Even managers could sense when there was danger in their plane. Surely judges would be able to do the same.
Shen Jing glanced at him. “By the time I sense it, it would not be considered a mere danger.” She indeed could sense everything that was happening in all the planes within the Chaos Void. But what bad person would inform everybody just before he does something bad? Such things would only be uncovered when they reach a certain horrible state. By then, Shen Jing imagined that they would be difficult to resolve.
It was just like when she first became a manager and met her first invader. By the time Mi Le, the monitor, realised that someone from another plane had invaded theirs, Shen Jing was already almost done solving the problem. Now that she was a judge, things would definitely be much harder for her. Of course she would not want something like that to happen again.
But the Chaos Void really was too big, and there was only one of her. No matter how many eyes she had on her, she would surely not be able to keep a watch on every single plane.
“Older Sister! Why don’t you use this eye?” Shen Ying suddenly handed the parenting system over.
[Ding! S-System greets… Big Boss Older Sister!] The parenting system’s cartoon eye blinked twice before it greeted Shen Jing obediently.
“Eh?” Shen Jing took the parenting system. At once, she got to work. Shen Jing instinctively pulled out her screen and studied the system’s data. There was a series of swooshes as complex numbers appeared on the screen and flashed past. She took one glance at it before her eyes widened. “This is… Wait” She lowered her gaze and said, “It has a consciousness!”
“Mm.” Shen Ying nodded. “It is just made up of a bunch of numbers, but it already has a special soul.”
“A living soul? What living soul?” Lonemoon interjected. He did not understand what Shen Ying had just said. Suddenly, his eyes widened as he recalled something. The parenting system did not just become a living creature did it?” These things about suddenly gaining a soul… It was important to understand that the system 001, and the entire hive of supplementary systems that they saw earlier had only one goal – that was to gain their own consciousness by having their own primary soul. If what Shen Jing was saying was true, then the parenting system already had one! “It developed its own consciousness?”
“It wasn’t me!” Shen Ying put the last of the potato chips in her mouth, then turned to take Chef’s storage bag from him. As she did that, she said, “It was your Chef.”
“Me?” Chef, who was just passing Shen Ying some pastries, stared blankly at her.
“Mm.” She nodded and continued, “The two of you are the managers. From the beginning, you acknowledged the parenting system’s existence. It was a matter of time before it developed its own consciousness and possessed its own soul.”
Lonemoon and Yi Qing exchanged a quizzical look, then turned back to her. Indeed, they had realised the parenting system existed from very early on. Yet, they never saw it as a problem to be dealt with – even though it kept taking over Feng Ying’s body. They just kept listening to its intermittent announcements through Shen Ying.
Especially when it became a block later on, it was even harder for them to join Feng Ying together with it again. Since then, the system followed Shen Ying around like a dog. This human-like behaviour caused Lonemoon and Yi Qing to stop seeing the system as a bunch of numbers. Instead, it saw it as an individual… person?
Both Lonemoon and Chef were managers – they represented two whole planes. If they had both acknowledged the parenting system as an individual, it was only natural that it would develop its own consciousness.
Suddenly, they wanted to pay tribute to the whole colony of invader systems. They planned for so long and went to such great lengths to go to all the different planes, yet did not manage to accomplish a single thing. Yet, the parenting system did nothing at all to achieve what they wanted the entire time. All their planning was not worth even the parenting system’s boot-licking!
So… was it much more useful to boot-lick?
(o__)ノ
“Older Sister, can I use this?” Shen Ying paid no mind to the two confused men.
Shen Jing kept the screen and nodded. “Not bad! With this system, things will really be much less troublesome.” The parenting system was connected to the thousands of other systems from earlier. What’s more, it could control all of them by itself. This meant that it had countless eyes, that could help Shen Jing with controlling all the planes in the Chaos Void. “The only thing is… Its programme needs adjusting.” There were many problems with the programme that the supplementary systems were using, mostly because they were from all sorts of different planes. Since they were invaders, they would undoubtedly affect the current plane they were in. But Shen Jing was a judge. She had the freedom to enter the other planes.
As if realising what Shen Jing was thinking, the parenting system immediately turned two rounds around her. As it flew around her, it made excited electronic noises.
[System will always be at Big Boss Older Sister’s service from now on! Big Boss Older Sister will reign the Chaos Void for thousands of years! (๑•ᄇ•́)و✧]
Lonemoon: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
This was not a professional system – it was just a professional boot-licker!
“Alright, come here!” Shen Jing reached out and the parenting system immediately landed on her palm obediently. Changing the data of the countless supplementary systems would not be an easy task. Shen Jing would have to take the parenting system back and do it slowly.
She turned around to look at Shen Ying. As if thinking of something, she frowned. “When I was still a monitor, I thought of letting you take over my job as the manager.”
Shen Ying hesitated and instinctively took a step back, but Shen Jing continued, “But given your current situation, I don’t think that’s possible.” The Chaos Void was too afraid of Shen Ying’s powers. It probably would not acknowledge her.
“…” Phew… That’s good, that’s good. It’s troublesome to manage a plane! It took her so much effort just to get rid of two planes earlier.
“I’m now a judge. I don’t think I can keep staying in this plane in the future. Naturally, I can’t be the manager of this plane anymore. Before the next manger is chosen, there has to be someone here to watch over things.”
Shen Ying and Chef exchanged a meaningful look. With total chemistry, they stepped back and left Lonemoon in front of them.
“Holy shit! What are all of you looking at me for!” Lonemoon pursed his lips and glared at them.
The two of you have countless tricks up your sleeve. They had already thrown two planes at him – were they going to throw third one at him now?
Flips table!
