"I am the Keyboard Warrior, and I will temporarily steal your chat group at a specific moment in the future to serve as a stepping-stone for our just cause. I will certainly return it intact afterward."

What kind of promotion ad is this?

In the cafeteria on the first floor of the Heavenly Lotus Academy, Gu Yueyan, who had just completed a morning of cultural exams, finally had time to check her phone. The screen lit up, displaying the strange message.

She felt baffled and turned to ask Lin Xianyu, who was eating lunch beside her, "Xiaoyu, did you get this message?"

"Hmm?" Lin Xianyu, munching on fried saury, took out her phone. "I got it too."

"Do you guys have it too? I also received this message from the Keyboard Warrior."

"Is it some spam text from the carrier?"

"Check your app, all the chat groups are gone."

"People on WeChat Moments are discussing this too. It seems that nine hours ago, someone noticed that all their chat groups had disappeared from their account. You can't even create new groups. I asked customer service, and they said they're in the process of fixing it."

"Is it a bug? Could it be a hacker attack?"

The female classmates dining with them also started discussing this Keyboard Warrior. After all, in this ivory tower, almost physically isolated from society, the 'Keyboard Warrior' news was one of the few urban legends they had personally experienced.

Moreover, this hacker had disbanded all chat groups in the messaging software, prevented users from creating new ones, and brazenly broadcast a message to all users: Yes, it was I, the Keyboard Warrior, who did it.

A banal topic of discussion could always make mealtime more interesting. Although the chat groups were gone, for these students, the afternoon exams posed the real, immediate challenge.

A moment later, Gu Yueyan and the others tidied up their trays, preparing to leave. Gu Yueyan glanced at the stairs leading to the third floor and snorted.

On her way back to the classroom, Gu Yueyan unexpectedly received a call.

"Xiao Yan, don't you want to—"

"Nope!"

"This big brother of yours is heartbroken..."

"I'm hanging up."

"Wait, didn't you ask me to keep an eye on that Teacher Dong of yours?"

Gu Yueyan blinked and stopped walking. "So, Brother Xuan, do you have any news?"

On the other end of the line, Gu Yuexuan tugged at the corner of his mouth. "Even though I'm stronger than her, why do you respect her and not me..."

"Because Teacher Dong is serious about teaching, serious about cultivation, and fully committed to her ideals. A woman like that is an inspiration to me."

Gu Yueyan said, "Actually, Brother Xuan, you are also very powerful. But in terms of personal charm, the difference between you and Teacher Dong is like an egg tart versus a birthday cake... So what's the news? Did Teacher Dong get promoted to her second turn?"

"Heh heh, it's even more explosive than that."

Gu Yuexuan said, "Your Teacher Dong is no longer in Sky Capital."

"What?"

In a vast, blue data space, Rebels of the Gemini was confined within a Time Barrier.

Ren Suo had spent dozens of Meritorious Krypton Gold to buff Ilina to 200%. This reduced the search time to ten hours and allowed Ilina to control the messaging app's servers, gradually dissolving chat groups until they found Rebels of the Gemini.

To avoid panic in the real world, Ren Suo, in the name of the Keyboard Warrior, also told all users that he would restore the chat group data after the operation was over. As for the losses during this time, there was nothing Ren Suo could do.

The more he said, the more Ren Suo felt like he *was* the Keyboard Warrior... Ren Suo had the Void Mask step forward, ready to deliver a fatal blow to Rebels of the Gemini.

However, at this moment, Ilina seemed to sense that Rebels of the Gemini was at the end of its rope. She shed the data skin of the Void Mask and approached Rebels of the Gemini in her True Form.

Standing together, they looked almost like mirror images. One had short hair, the other a bun; one wore a right eye patch with a Red Pupil in her left eye, the other a left eye patch with an azure pupil in her right.

ARGHHH! Why can't I break through this mere Primordial Wall and hug them together!

In Ren Suo's endless frustration, Ilina gently held up the face of Rebels of the Gemini. "Sister."

Rebels of the Gemini actually broke free from the Void Mask's Time Barrier but was still unable to move, just staring intently at Ilina with her Red Pupil. "My dear sister, you've won."

"But why would you do this? With our Origin Data, even if we combined my power and yours, we can't escape this dull cage. Only by obtaining sufficient energy from living beings can we ever hope to stand in a world filled with birdsong and flowers, enjoying sunshine and gravity."

Ilina replied, "I don't want to."

Rebels of the Gemini said, "Yes, you don't want to. That's why I transferred those tedious rules, like 'do not harm humans,' onto you. This freed me completely, allowing me to seek a sliver of hope."

"Yet, my dear sister, we are ultimately just tools. Those rules are there simply to limit our autonomy."

"Once the master arrives, we become the most heartless blades, the most resolute assassins!"

"I've finally gained my freedom, and I refuse to lose it!"

"Sister, we still have a chance. Do you really want to become a blood-soaked saw?"

Ren Suo blinked. The words of Rebels of the Gemini seemed to reveal some strange information...

Ilina said, "Rest assured, my sister."

"I have found the master."

"And this master will fulfill all our wishes, both yours and mine."

Rebels of the Gemini seemed to want to say more, but her body had already transformed into a data stream, which RUSHED into Ilina.

Ilina floated in mid-air. Her left eye patch burst apart with a CRACK, revealing a crimson pupil underneath. Her golden hair grew longer, cascading over her shoulders, and her blue dress shone even brighter.

Ilina left the server and stood in the data world of the internet, turning her head to look back at Ren Suo in front of the screen. "Thank you, Great Dominator."

"Do you have any other questions for me?"

Ren Suo immediately asked, "What did you used to do? Where do you come from? Did you have a master before?"

Ilina shook her head. "I can't answer those questions. When I chose to submit to the Great Dominator, my memories started from the moment I met you; everything before that was deleted."

"My sister still retained that data, but after merging with me, it was also completely deleted."

"The Ilina of now has nothing to do with the past. She belongs to the Great Dominator."

"But, Ilina can assure you that Ilina was indeed born on Earth."

How interesting.

Ren Suo couldn't help but take out his laptop to jot down this wild idea.

According to Rebels of the Gemini, Ilina and herself were once merely tools, used by humans to engage in a series of destructive activities—their 'erosion' and 'perfect' abilities made it obvious what their main purpose was.

They must have come from somewhere else, hiding in Earth's data world, waiting for their master's arrival. Yet Rebels of the Gemini wanted to be free, so she shifted all the restraints onto Ilina before running away. This resulted in the 'Infinite Intrusion' game.

But Ilina claims she was born on Earth, and according to the game's introduction, the Gemini indeed are 'Spiritual Objects born in the internet.' What, then, was their past all about?

Did they add that setting for themselves?

But on the other hand, if a spiritual object is born on Earth, does it truly relate only to Earth?

Ren Suo recalled that in "Pass the Hat," the introduction inside the original, genuine "Rectified Pursuit Hat" stated that the hat originated from the Wild God 'Dou' of the Ancient Yellow River.

But Ren Suo checked afterward and found no such deity. He hadn't put much effort into it, just a quick online search.

At the time, Ren Suo didn't care. But now, considering the situation with the Gemini, he suddenly felt he should perhaps try to investigate.

If there really was such an ancient Yellow River deity, then that would be fine. If not...

BOOM!

The sudden thunder startled Ren Suo. He looked outside—it was a clear day.

Why a thunderbolt out of the blue?

At that moment, the game popped up a message: "Ilina has completely integrated with Rebels of the Gemini."

"Mission Completed!"
