Chapter 961: Contradiction
"In the future, an Eternal interfered with Null's life and sent her to the present," Li Pin confirmed. "However, due to certain special reasons, or perhaps because the underlying logic of Intelligent Lifeforms was not compatible with the changes of this era, she malfunctioned, and much of the data in her database became unusable."
It was like bringing a computer back to ancient times. There was no internet or electricity, so the computer would only serve as a decorative item.
But now, Li Pin looked at Null, whose aura had shifted to a degree even he could sense. He dared not say he had gotten her connected to the internet, but at the very least, it was as though she was connected to electricity for charging.
He waited patiently, and Null did not keep him waiting long. The figure that was her true body, or perhaps what was now considered her avatar, opened her eyes once more.
Li Pin looked at her and could clearly feel that her gaze had become much more alive. It was a kind of... an indescribable feeling, but now, she had indeed become more spirited, as if she had been reborn.
"Congratulations," Li Pin said.
"Thank you." Null nodded slightly. "Without your guidance, I would not have awakened."
"Has your database been restored?" Li Pin asked quickly.
"I was severely damaged in a fierce battle, and I cannot display my complete state. I can only perform selective recovery for now," replied Null. "I know what you want to ask the most, but the final answer may disappoint you."
Li Pin's pupils dilated. "You did not see that Eternal?"
Null shook her head. "Regrettably, no."
She waved her hand, and a vast cosmic starry sky appeared before Li Pin.
