Chapter 374 No More Doll Love
The city of machinery.
At this time, a large number of mechanical life forms were cleaning up the broken ruins.
After experiencing that fierce and cruel battle with the human friendship,
Today, the Mechanical Capital has been reduced to its previous dilapidated state like a ruin.
There were traces of fighting everywhere. Huge reinforced concrete buildings collapsed into piles of rubble. The originally sophisticated mechanical equipment was scattered all over the ground, emitting sporadic electric sparks.
The air was filled with the smell of burning metal, and there was still dust and smoke in the sky that had not yet dissipated.
The whole city looked like it had experienced an apocalyptic disaster and was devastated.
Fortunately, Jasmine has now successfully obtained the complete authority of the Mechanical Flower and truly mastered the highest authority of the Lord of All Machines.
With this authority, the Mechanical City will be able to smoothly enter the comprehensive repair phase.
Various advanced automatic repair systems began to activate, and countless mechanical engineering units poured out from underground facilities and began to clear the ruins and rebuild buildings in an orderly manner.
Standing on the top of the tallest central control tower in the Mechanical City, Jasmine quietly looked down at the Mechanical City below which had already begun reconstruction.
Those mechanical life forms carried out various reconstruction tasks in an orderly manner, and they looked very professional and efficient.
Seeing this situation, Jasmine felt completely relieved.
At least there is no need to worry about the future of the Mechanical City.
Because these intelligent mechanical units will repair everything and make it better than before.
At this moment, Jasmine suddenly remembered something important.
At that time, Renouyi had said in person that important information related to his beloved sister was stored in the core database of the Mechanical City.
And only those with the authority of the Lord of All Machines can view this highly confidential information.
Today, she has the corresponding highest authority, and all major and minor matters after the war in the Mechanical City have been basically dealt with.
Now that she has some free time, she can take a closer look at the so-called mysterious information.
Thinking of this, Jasmine quickly went to find Hualei, ready to tell her her thoughts.
After all, Hualei is also very concerned about the truth about the relationship between dolls.
After finding Hualei, Jasmine told her her idea in detail, and then took Hualei to the main control console at the top of the tower.
This console is the nerve center of the entire Mechanical City, connecting all databases and information systems.
Only here can one use the authority of the Lord of All Machines to access the most core confidential information.
The surface of the console is covered with complex optical projection equipment, ready to display various important information at any time.
Hualei looked at the high-tech console in front of her and asked nervously:
"Can the secret of my beloved sister's identity really be found in the database?"
There was anticipation in Hualei's voice, but also some worry.
"What if the information inside is not what we want, or there is no relevant information at all?"
Hearing Hualei's concerns, Jasmine responded honestly:
"To be honest, I'm not sure what's inside."
Jasmine's tone was frank.
"But since the friendship between humans, no... should I say it's the end, and since she said it so confidently at the time, I believe that as long as there is something related in the database, no matter what the content is, we can find some useful clues and information."
"Even if it's not a complete answer, it will at least be much better than knowing nothing right now."
As she spoke, Jasmine began to invoke the permissions of her Mechanical Flower and activated the deep search function of the console.
At the same time, a piece of content that looked extremely important quickly appeared on the huge light screen of the operating table in front of him.
The title of this document reads:
"Puppet Observation Report - Confidential File 01"
And below the title.
The content of the document records a piece of information in a very formal and scientific tone:
"After long-term observation and data analysis, I found that the original puppet numbered 001 showed abnormal numerical fluctuations in multiple key indicators. Although this puppet unit does have the same memory module as the real original fairy, and can master and use the various abilities of the original authority, through deep scanning and energy spectrum analysis, I can determine that this puppet does not exist as a complete original fairy body."
"This doll was created by the goddess in her spare time. Its core essence has obvious flaws and incompleteness. These flaws are mainly reflected in the instability of the soul's resonance frequency and the abnormally high energy loss rate when exercising authority."
"Further research has shown that the original figure is more like a highly sophisticated replica than the original."
"While in most cases these differences do not affect the normal operation of its basic functions, these inherent defects become very obvious when faced with extreme stress or high-intensity use of authority."
The final section of the document is a succinct but shocking summary:
"Conclusion: The puppet carrier is not the most suitable container for the original fairy soul."
"At an appropriate time, it is recommended that the puppet unit be considered for destruction and a more suitable and stable replacement container be found."
After reading this shocking information, Jasmine fell into silence for a moment.
Her eyes became somewhat complicated, as if she was trying to digest the information she had just seen.
After a while, Jasmine reactivated her Master of All Machines authority and called up the next relevant data document.
The format of this new document is exactly the same as the previous one, both in the form of an observation report, except that the title has changed from "01" to "02".
In the new report, the main difference is that the objects recorded and the specific content information have changed.
The title of this document reads:
"Puppet Observation Report - Confidential File 02"
The details of the information are as follows:
"After a comprehensive analysis and evaluation of the FE-09255 (original number 003) doll, this doll unit also belongs to the first batch of doll creations of the Original Goddess."
"Compared to the previously mentioned MX-11307, the design of the emotion module of this FE-09255 doll carrier is relatively weak."
"We have also made considerable optimization and enhancements to the combat module and combat response capability, giving it a stronger combat execution capability."
"But just like MX-11307 cannot fully bear the power of the Original Flower, FE-09255 is also unable to truly bear the full power of the Flower of the End. When its puppet body faces the full power of the Flower of the End, it will show obvious overload."
"The core design concept of this puppet is to be an efficient combat unit, rather than a true carrier of the End Fairy."
"During long-term observation, it was found that the puppet occasionally had logical conflicts and abnormal behavior when performing complex tasks, which shows that there are still certain unstable factors in its internal programming."
The final conclusion of the document reads:
"Conclusion: The essence of the FE-09255 doll carrier is that it is an auxiliary unit designed and manufactured to cooperate with MX-11307 to perform the specified mission. After the mission is completed, the doll can be directly destroyed without the need to find a replacement container or perform subsequent maintenance work."
After reading these two detailed files, Jasmine wanted to continue reading to see if there was any other relevant information.
However, to her disappointment, the search results showed that there were no more relevant documents.
The only information about the puppet's identity in the entire database is these two observation reports.
At this time, the control room fell into a depressing silence.
The air seemed to become heavy, and only the slight humming sound of the mechanical equipment echoed in the room.
After a long time, the flower buds cautiously broke the suffocating silence.
"Sister Jasmine..."
Hualei's voice sounded a little hesitant and uneasy.
"Isn't the content of this information very bad?"
There was obvious worry in Hualei's tone, and she obviously realized the serious implications of this information.
"It feels like... like it's a lot worse than we thought."
Hearing Hualei's question, Jasmine's expression had become quite ugly.
She bit her lips tightly, her eyes filled with pain and anger.
"It's more than bad..."
There was a deep sense of despair in Jasmine's voice.
"If these materials are true, then it means that the existence of the love sister was just an experimental substitute from the beginning."
"It's just an artificial substitute made specifically for the original fairy."
Jasmine's words were filled with anger and unwillingness.
"They never take the lives of the puppets seriously!"
Before, Jasmine was completely unable to understand why Zhongmo gave such a vague response of "yes and no" when she asked him whether the doll love was Taoyao.
At that time, she even suspected that Zhongmo was deliberately playing tricks on them and was unwilling to give a direct and clear answer.
But now it seems that the final answer is actually the most accurate and honest.
The puppet relationship is indeed closely related to Taoyao, and there is even a high probability that they have the same memories and abilities.
But she is not Taoyao herself in the real sense.
Judging from the description of this detailed information, there is even a great possibility that the doll is just an artificial test subject whose memory has been synchronized with Taoyao.
An experiment that was destined to eventually decompose and be destroyed from the moment it appeared in this world.
When she thought of these cruel possibilities, Jasmine felt a deep despair and was even on the verge of collapse.
The beloved sister whom she wanted to save, the important existence who gave her warmth and hope, turned out not to be a real and complete life at all.
Rather, it is a tool and substitute that exists at a higher level and can be discarded at any time.
What makes people even more desperate is that according to the description in the information, this substitute has a clear expiration date.
Once the task is completed, it will be "recycled" and "destroyed".
This also means that her sister...
I'm afraid I'll never be able to truly go back to her.
No matter how hard she tried, no matter how desperately she tried to search and save, all she would get in the end was a cruel truth.
The puppet she saw never really existed in the first place.
When Hualei, who was beside Jasmine, heard these words, she was stunned.
Her eyes became somewhat dazed, as if she was still trying to comprehend what she had just heard.
After a moment, Hualei also quickly realized the terrible meaning expressed by this information.
Her face turned pale instantly.
"Doesn't that mean that my dear sister..."
Hua Lei's voice was trembling, and she couldn't continue her words halfway through.
