Chapter 740 Awakening

Chapter 180 Destroying
  Destroying Hanhan’s new brain, erasing the memories of the Earth Apostle and Hanhan, and allowing the brain to regrow would give birth to a brand new consciousness.

  Let this consciousness take over Hanhan's body…

  In other words, the world would no longer have the Earth Apostle and Li Han. Instead, there would be a third person with the Earth Apostle's abilities and Li Han's body!

  Li Tianran's brow twitched, and his teeth clenched.

  "So… I have to erase my sister from this world with my own hands." Li Tianran stared with bloodshot eyes, squeezing out a sentence from between his teeth.

  "..." Bai Jingyan didn't say anything.

  He knew that at this time, no matter what he said, he couldn't comfort Li Tianran.

  What a cruel thing this was!

  Two people with close relationships were forced to erase everything related to themselves from each other's brains, turning the other person into a stranger.

  Didi didi!

  In the biological laboratory, the alarms from the data display screen rang continuously.

  Even with ninety percent of the energy output, Hanhan's brain recovery speed was still rising steadily.

  There seemed to be a peculiar connection between the Triangular Tower and the Earth Apostle.

  The Earth Apostle could awaken the Triangular Tower.

  And the Triangular Tower, when encountering strong stimuli, could also awaken the Earth Apostle in some way.

  Li Tianran had no idea what their link was, so he couldn't forcibly disconnect it or prevent the Earth Apostle from recovering.

  "Destroy it then." Li Tianran closed his eyes and said with all his strength, "Just do as you see fit."

  Destroying the brain now meant that, at least in the short term, Li Tianran could still control Hanhan, and later find opportunities to repair her memory.

  But once the Earth Apostle fully recovered, not only would Hanhan be completely out of control, but Li Tianran would also have no chance of bringing Hanhan back!

  Faced with the grim situation, Li Tianran could still distinguish which choice was the most beneficial!

  "I'll handle it."

  After receiving Li Tianran's permission, Bai Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief.

  He was really afraid that Li Tianran would waver at this time, unable to make a decision. And he was not qualified to make decisions for Li Tianran. Without Li Tianran's consent, the pioneers on Kuangxi Island would never allow Bai Jingyan to perform the "brain destruction" on Hanhan.

  …

  After hanging up the satellite phone, Bai Jingyan stared at Hanhan's soaring data and took a deep breath. "Adjust the energy output…"

  "One hundred percent!"

  As a series of instructions were typed on the console, the energy display light column outside the bio-capsule was instantly filled. Violent electromagnetic energy enveloped Hanhan's body, twisting like thunderous snakes, pouring into her brain.

  "Uh…"

  Hanhan's body began to tremble, and she made involuntary noises in her throat, as if she was enduring severe pain.

  "..."

  Bai Jingyan closed his eyes and walked to the back of the crowd, as if unwilling to witness such a cruel scene.

  The vast and terrifying electromagnetic energy rushed into Hanhan's brain, and her body was enveloped in a brilliant light.

  But at this moment, someone suddenly screamed.

  "Researcher Bai! Her… her mental activity frequency is still rising!"

  With this scream, the originally silent laboratory exploded.

  "What?"

  "Maximum power output can't offset her recovery speed?"

  "This…"

  Bai Jingyan's pupils shrank. He pushed aside the crowd in front of him and came to the bio-capsule. After one hundred percent energy output, the mental frequency activity trace displayed on the electronic screen changed from a straight line to a slowly rising arc.

  Although the upward trend had decreased, it was still rising!

  In other words, the maximum power of this "instrument of torture" could only suppress her, but not prevent her recovery!

  "According to the records in the Sky Castle, this instrument of torture has been used in many experiments since its development. When the energy output reaches 30%, it can completely destroy the brains of all creatures, including intelligent second-evolution creatures…"

  "However, the test subjects used were all second-rate follower sequences! As for the Apostles… this is the first time!"

  "I originally thought that even an Apostle could only last until about ninety-five percent energy output, but it can't even destroy her with one hundred percent energy output!"

  Bai Jingyan had a look of astonishment on his face.

  In fact, his prediction was not wrong. The power of this "instrument of torture" was indeed very powerful. If it were Xingchen (Star) or Kuangfeng (Gale) Apostle inside today, about ninety percent energy output would have been enough to burn their brains out.

  But the one lying inside now was the Earth Apostle.

  She was the most powerful and special of all the Apostles.

  Exceeding Bai Jingyan's estimated brain strength of the apostle!

  "Her finger… is moving!"

  A pioneer suddenly spoke, pointing at the inside of the bio-capsule and shouting in a deep voice.

  Bai Jingyan's eyes suddenly looked over, and he saw that in the violent magnetic field of thunder and lightning, Hanhan, who had been lying there quietly like a corpse, was now slightly twitching her right ring finger. Although the frequency was very small, Bai Jingyan was very clear that this was definitely not a reaction caused by the body being stimulated by thunder, but a limb movement truly controlled by the brain!

  And with the movement of that finger, Hanhan's entire body seemed to have turned on a switch. Her arms, legs, and other joints began to bend and arch, as if a person who had been sleeping for many years was waking up from a dream, using this action to familiarize herself with her body!

  Her hands were moving, her legs were moving, her whole body was moving!

  In the horrified eyes of everyone, Hanhan slowly sat up.

  Buzz!

  Everyone's heads felt like they had been hit by a heavy hammer.

  Bai Jingyan felt a sense of suffocation coming over him.

  The Earth Apostle, awakened?

  "No, her eyes haven't opened yet!" Bai Jingyan roared, he noticed that in the bio-capsule's sky full of lightning, Hanhan's eyes were still tightly closed, and the instrument showed that her brain's nerve repair level had not yet reached one hundred percent!

  This meant that she was still some distance away from fully recovering!

  "Adjust the energy output, overload output!" Bai Jingyan almost instantly issued a new instruction on the console again.

  At the moment when Bai Jingyan's finger entered the new instruction, the internal energy engine of the entire "instrument of torture" made a heavy roar.

  Crackling!

  A ball of fire burst out from the gap under the "instrument of torture."

  Countless dense cracks appeared on its bio-capsule.

  Its overload operation was equivalent to the mecha warrior's burst state.

  In a short period of time, the energy output was instantly increased to 120% of its power, and after the output, the entire machine would explode!

  "Quick! Get out! Get out!"

  A terrifying energy reaction filled the laboratory, and Bai Jingyan felt a destructive aura rapidly gathering.

  Five seconds later, everyone evacuated the laboratory.

  Rumble!

  A terrifying explosion sounded, and the ferocious electromagnetic lightning instantly submerged the entire laboratory!

  Rumble!

  As the deafening explosion sounded, the entire biological laboratory was submerged by the raging electromagnetic lightning and exploding fire.

  Everyone looked at the fire and smoke in the ruins, their hearts filled with anxiety.

  Especially Bai Jingyan.

  According to his previous idea, if this "instrument of torture" could destroy Hanhan's brain, then it only needed to keep running, and it could continue to control Hanhan firmly as before, so that even if she gave birth to a new brain, she would never be able to wake up.

  But Hanhan's brain strength exceeded Bai Jingyan's prediction, and the "instrument of torture"'s one hundred percent energy output could not defeat her. And once it was overloaded, the resulting energy might destroy Hanhan's brain, but from then on, Kuangxi Island would no longer have the ability to control Hanhan.

  She would completely wake up with a body controlled by a brand new consciousness!

  And no one knew what attitude this "new consciousness" would have towards Bai Jingyan and Kuangxi Island!

  "No matter what… it's better than the Earth Apostle's consciousness occupying this body!" Bai Jingyan muttered in a low voice, his eyes staring at the ruins of the laboratory shrouded in terrifying energy and smoke.

  There was still a trace of worry in his heart.

  He was worried that if even a 120% energy output could not destroy Hanhan's brain, and the Earth Apostle fully awakened, then Kuangxi Island would really encounter a disaster today.

  The raging energy and smoke lingered in the sky above the ruins for a long time. After a few seconds, Bai Jingyan strode towards the ruins.

  He wanted to see what the final result was.

  This feeling of waiting for judgment was really too unbearable.

  Even if it was the Earth Apostle who had recovered, Bai Jingyan would rather take the initiative to die than endure this torment of waiting for death.

  "Researcher Bai…"

  "Danger!"

  "Don't get close!"

  The pioneers spoke out, wanting to stop Bai Jingyan, but he did not listen to anyone's advice and walked straight into the ruins and smoke, his back quickly disappearing.

  But the next second.

  Bai Jingyan retreated at an even faster speed.

  No, to be precise, he wasn't retreating, but flying out.

  Like a badminton ball, he was slapped away by a huge force!

  Thump!

  His body fell heavily in front of the pioneers, vomiting a mouthful of blood, his face extremely pale.

  "Researcher Bai!"

  The pioneers instantly surrounded him.

  "Don't move, don't move! All my ribs are broken, don't move me, it will stab my internal organs!" Bai Jingyan stretched out a hand, his voice trembling, blocking the pioneers who were surrounding him, and then pointed straight at the ruins: "She… she has woken up!"

  As Bai Jingyan's words came out, the smoke and electromagnetic lightning that had been lingering on the ruins began to deform violently. They twisted, roared, and condensed into something like a tornado. They expanded outwards, covering and sweeping everything around!

  Three seconds before, after Bai Jingyan stepped into the ruins, he only saw a fair hand slapping towards his face.

  The action of this palm was very casual, and it did not seem to carry a strong aura of attack. It was like a human swatting flies and mosquitoes, looking light and without any strength.

  But when the palm landed on Bai Jingyan's body, he felt like his body had hit a moving train. The difference in strength made him unable to make any resistance, and his body had already been slapped away like a badminton ball!
