Genius Club

Chapter 669

Chapter 669: Chapter 37: Turing and the Fourth Dreamland_4 Chapter 669: Chapter 37: Turing and the Fourth Dreamland_4 “If you really want to know the answer, then come to the Genius Club!

I’m looking forward to meeting you at the club meeting, where I will welcome you with the warmest applause...

my friend.

I truly hope that day comes soon, as I am even more eager to see your performance in the Genius Club.”

“So, I’m sorry, Lin Xian, even though I really do want to tell you the answer, the reason I decided to kill myself is that I have decided...

to be the fairest, most impartial Observer in this game.”

Boom...

Boom...

...

Sparks erupted from the wires in the room, and the carpet and nearby computer cases burst into flames in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, the entire house was engulfed in fire, prompting Lin Xian to step back as he felt the temperature in the air soar.

“Goodbye, until we meet again.”

Amidst the roaring blaze, the speakers crackled and spat out noise:

“[From this moment on, there will no longer be a cowardly and despicable Kevin Walker in this world; what remains is the forever fair and just Turing.]”

Bang bang bang bang bang...

Several speakers exploded just as the voice ceased, and the flames burning inside the room grew larger and larger.

A normal room would never catch fire this dramatically.

Perhaps.

This was a contingency Kevin Walker had put in place to destroy data quickly during a retreat.

But ironically, it was now being used by his digital life form to serve as the furnace to incinerate his body.@@@@

Lin Xian retreated to the doorway of the house.

He took one last look at the raging inferno in the room, where various wires and components snapped and popped from the heat, and Kevin Walker lay in a twisted pose on the floor, his hair and clothes being devoured by flames.

This was the demise of the world’s strongest hacker, the fall of a genius.

No grand ceremony,

No shocking scene,

No thrilling confrontation,

No endlessly captivating game.

It was all so simple, so swift.

In the end,

Even the world’s greatest geniuses are merely a tad more intelligent than the average person but ultimately nothing more than flesh and blood.

Lin Xian often felt that the Time-Space Assassin appeared slightly more robust than Yu Xi, but now it seemed that might just be a matter of clothing style.

Yu Xi’s cute attire always gave the impression she was somewhat petite.

But in fact, Lin Xian had seen her calves and arms when she slept in the car; they had plenty of muscle definition.

So...

maybe he truly had underestimated Yu Xi’s combat strength because of her short, hamster-like, adorable ponytail.

Soon.

After a few back-and-forth leaps,

Lin Xian didn’t take the stairs; he simply scaled the walls and flipped onto the first floor, bursting out of the circular building.

Nowhere could he see Yu Xi or the Time-Space Assassin.

But from a distance, near the deserted school gate, the clanging of weapons echoed faintly.

It seemed they were still fighting, locked in an unresolved battle.

Lin Xian glanced at the rugged off-road vehicle parked in front of the building...

He couldn’t help much for now; standing by to watch might even distract Yu Xi and lead to a slip-up.

Today’s battle had already been significant enough; it was time to retreat!

And besides...

He was truly curious.

Now that he had killed Kevin Walker, would the Fourth Dreamland change in any way?

Would the mysterious old man disappear?

He was eager to enter the dream and check.

If there were indeed any progress...

maybe he could gather some useful information, find a way to deal with the Time-Space Assassin!

With a clear plan in mind, Lin Xian immediately jumped into the driver’s seat of the rugged off-road vehicle.

With a roar, he started it.

Then, flooring the gas pedal, he whipped the vehicle around in place and accelerated towards the school gate.

As expected.

Just as he passed beyond the blind spot of the academic building’s sightline, he saw Yu Xi and the Time-Space Assassin fighting fiercely under the glow of the moonlight.

The Time-Space Assassin’s clothes bore some marks of being cut by a dagger...

but the wounds seemed shallow, not significantly hindering her movements or speed.
