Although Ren Suo was snapping his fingers toward the center of the living room, he was actually pointing at the television. Newest update provided by NoveIＦire
When it ca to creating an identity, Ren Suo naturally thought of the ga characters who could punch through Summoner's Valley and kick across the Aragarth Continent, the sole GM in the data world, an invincible existence standing at the pinnacle among the Paper People—Ilina from "Infinite Intrusion"!
Among the ga characters Ren Suo owned, Ilina was one of the rare few not suited for conventional combat.
She existed in the data world, moving between network cables and servers aided by fiber optics. In terms of physical destructive power, she definitely couldn't match other characters. Even the Mini-World Ga Console thought so—Ren Suo had used "Rippling Spring Sounds" several tis in the ga and almost never received a recomndation to summon Ilina.
Besides, she could probably only appear behind an LCD screen. Would she attack enemies with flickering images and piercing sounds?
However, Ilina was, after all, a 3-Star ga character. Ren Suo wouldn't normally summon her just to chat idly. But when it was necessary, Ren Suo wasn't stingy with the summoning ti.
Just when Ren Suo thought Ilina was going to appear on the TV screen, his phone, placed on the coffee table, suddenly lit up, emitting an extrely bright beam of light.
"WOW!" Little Jiu curiously reached out to touch the phone, but her little finger encountered an invisible barrier, causing ripples to spread across it.
The light from the phone suddenly focused in front of Ren Suo, weaving a humanoid screen of light in the air like a sewing machine.
Three seconds later, the light screen dissipated, and a woman, whom both Little Jiu and Ren Suo knew very well, vividly appeared before them.
She knelt on one knee in the manner of a dieval Knight, respectfully saying, "In accordance with the commands of Rippling Spring Sounds, I have co to seek an audience with the Supre Supre!"
Little Jiu gasped, her eyes wide as she watched, but she didn't fidget. Instead, she got down on all fours on the sofa like a fox, instinctively adopting the posture she was most familiar with.
Ren Suo was also stunned. He reached out to brush her hair aside, pinching her cheek.
It was warm, tender, and smooth. He even felt like pinching it again.
Suppressing this frivolous desire, Ren Suo asked, "Are you... Ilina?"
"Indeed," Ilina responded respectfully, seemingly unconcerned about Ren Suo pinching her cheek.
"But why do you look like this?"
The current Ilina was not the expressionless girl Ren Suo knew—the one with a red left eye, a green right eye, blonde hair, and a blue dress. Instead, she looked exactly like... Dong Chengling.
Yes, her current appearance was identical to Dong Chengling, her voice was the sa, and she even had a physical body.
Even her clothing was the sa as Dong Chengling's, who had just left.
If Ren Suo hadn't seen her being woven out of the phone's light, he would have thought Dong Chengling had Teleported back.
"I chose to manifest via the Supre Supre's communication device. Since this woman's image was set as the device's wallpaper, I deed it appropriate to appear before the Supre Supre in this form."
It turned out that because Dong Chengling's photo was set as the phone's screensaver, Ilina had directly adopted her appearance.
It was fortunate his screensaver was set by soone else; otherwise, Ilina might have appeared in a very unfortunate form. Ren Suo thought.
"Please, sit down." Ren Suo dared not let Ilina continue kneeling.
Ilina obediently sat on the sofa and glanced at Little Jiu.
Little Jiu's eyes widened in alarm. She instantly bristled and quickly scrambled behind Ren Suo, clutching his neck and hiding. She only dared to peek out with her little head to stealthily observe Ilina.
Having been held by Little Jiu all morning, Ren Suo was used to it and paid her no further attention. However, it seed his understanding of Ilina had been greatly mistaken. Not only could Ilina appear in reality, but she was also quite formidable—at least strong enough to make Little Jiu jump around in fright.
Indeed, a ga character with an Initial Star Level of three was no pushover.
However, looking at Ilina in this guise, he felt a slight sense of unease. Communicating through "Rippling Spring Sounds," he secretly said, "Ilina, can you change back to your original form?"
Ilina, now wearing the 'skin' of Dong Chengling, watched him respectfully. This made Ren Suo quite uncomfortable. He didn't like seeing Dong Chengling act this submissively; if it were Zhao Huo or Yu Kuangtu, that would be a different story.
But Ilina replied, "Supre Supre, it's best that I don't reveal my true form in the outside world."
Ren Suo: "Why?"
Ilina: "My true form is unique. If witnessed by others, there is a risk of exposure. Once others know that I am a special living being existing in the data world, they might discover my weaknesses and flaws. I can only temporarily appear in the real world, and I need an existing data link to maintain my current state. If enemies target this, preventing from linking to the 'Origin Data,' then I will vanish into thin air in the real world. Of course, should I disappear here, the 'Origin Data' will produce a new Ilina, so the Supre Supre need not worry."
Unlike other ga characters, Ilina was ultimately a data being and indeed hard to deal with. She was like a ghost in the network, absolutely uncatchable.
Yet on a national level, dealing with Ilina wasn't difficult: when Ilina appeared, extensively shutting down electricity in that region, or directly using an EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) to interfere with all data links, would naturally force Ilina offline.
Moreover, Ilina would then die outright. Although the ga character entry would still exist, the Ilina who appeared next would be a different set of data.
To Ilina, the data being, it didn't count as death as long as the Origin Data still existed and could produce duplicates. However, Ren Suo, still a carbon-based Upright Ape with low-level tastes, naturally believed that 'every life should be cherished.' Therefore, he imdiately agreed to Ilina's suggestion:
Ren Suo: "Okay, you don't have to reveal your true form in the outside world. But switch to another image that isn't unique."
Ilina: "No problem. Then, Supre Supre, what image do you want to change into?"
Ren Suo: "Anything."
Then Ilina transford, turning into a virtual singer with blue hair.
This image seed to originate from a photo of Zhao Huo that Ren Suo had accidentally saved while browsing his social dia feed.
However, there wasn't that strange feeling of a 2D character being awkwardly rendered in 3D. Ilina's current appearance was very natural and harmonious, as if she were a fantasy character who had stepped out of the 2D world. Ren Suo estimated that if he took a picture of this scene and sent it to Zhao Huo, Zhao would definitely scream mid-class, "AAAAHHH, I'M GONNA DIE!"
Ren Suo, of course, didn't care much and continued to ask, "Do you also have Combat Power in the real world? Can this body of yours fight?"
Ilina: "This is the power of Gemini, 'Perfect Erosion.' I can erode the real world, projecting images, characters, and power from the data world into the real world, provided there is a data network near the target area. The range of Erosion and the strength of the power will be limited by the level of Spiritual Energy in the real world and the data image I choose, but I can perfectly implent the 'Abilities' of the data world in reality. Moreover, this body of mine is transford from Spiritual Energy and is indistinguishable from a True Human, able to et all the Supre Supre's demands."
Ren Suo's eyes brightened. He hadn't expected Ilina to also be such a powerful weapon!
The ability to perfectly implent all the abilities of the data world in reality! Even though it was limited by the level of Spiritual Energy and the Erosion range, it still ant Ilina could undoubtedly dominate wherever she appeared. Judgnt Day in her left hand, Carefree Divine Sword in her right, not to ntion summoning the Invincible Golden Body and calling upon the King's Treasury for a few hundred Italian Cannons… Moreover, Ilina could change her appearance every ti she appeared! This gave him a lot of room to maneuver when he had Ilina appear in reality! Only then did Ren Suo realize the true aning behind "Rippling Spring Sounds" not recomnding Ilina: the enemies here were all trash; using Ilina was complete overkill.
Even though Ilina needed to connect to the internet to unleash her power, Ren Suo was very satisfied.
Not to ntion, among all ga characters, Ilina was probably the one who treated him the best, calling him 'Supre Supre' so much that even he felt a bit puffed up. He glanced at the entry for the adventurer. TSK TSK TSK.
However, Ren Suo was so surprised by Ilina's sudden appearance in reality that he almost forgot his main task. After several minutes of dialogue, he noticed the 'Summoning Ti' was running low and hurriedly said, "Ilina, I need you to get a suitable identity for Little Jiu in the Mysterious Country."
Ilina looked at Little Jiu, who was hugging Ren Suo's neck, and said, "Get one? No need. I can create a flawless identity for her, Supre Supre. Any requests?"
"Create one? Can you do that? Won't traces be left? For example, birth records would involve hospitals, nurses, doctors, and other witnesses."
Ren Suo was sowhat worried. After all, sothing conjured from nothing always felt precarious; it might be better to appropriate the identity of soone who had already disappeared.
Ilina: "Don't worry. I can choose a hospital that has closed down, where the nurses and doctors involved are all elderly individuals who have since passed away. This will circumvent any problems. Furthermore, I can forge a doctor's journal, blog, and social dia posts so that investigators can trace everything back to a fabricated source."
Since Ilina said so, Ren Suo could only trust her.
"Then create an identity for Little Jiu. Um, it would be best if she has no living relatives but has so connection to . That way, my parents can adopt her. Then I'll have no legal issues taking care of her, and Little Jiu can also attend school normally."
Ilina nodded slightly, then suddenly asked Little Jiu directly, "What is your full na?"
She wasn't asking this through 'Rippling Spring Sounds,' but directly to Little Jiu.
Little Jiu poked her head out, stared at her, and said softly in a sweet voice, "Little Jiu!"
Ilina asked, "What about your surna?"
"What surna?" Little Jiu tilted her head and fell silent.
Ilina nodded, not asking further. She closed her eyes, and after a mont said, "I have handled it. Soon, soone will deliver Little Jiu's identity docunts and other related materials."
Ren Suo was shocked. Her efficiency was almost frightening.
Ilina asked, "Supre Supre, is there anything else?"
"That's all. You may withdraw," Ren Suo maintained his composure and waved for Ilina to leave. The 'Summoning Ti' is almost up!
Then Little Jiu saw the very dangerous woman—whose transformations were no less impressive than her own—turn into streams of green light and return to the phone. Throughout the process, Little Jiu hadn't heard the secret conversation between Ren Suo and Ilina. She had been very nervous and only relaxed after Ilina left.
She hurriedly jumped down, grabbed Ren Suo's phone, tapping it all over with a shocked expression on her face. "Big Brother, your phone can actually summon such an amazing person!"
"Mhm, mhm," Ren Suo said nonchalantly. "It's just a minor thing, Little Jiu. You need to get used to it. And rember to add what just happened to your list of sensitive topics; you can't just go blabbing about it."
"Oh..." Little Jiu seed genuinely eager to brag and agreed with a hint of regret. Then she suddenly said, "Big Brother, your phone just beeped."
Ren Suo took the phone and looked at it, his expression changing slightly—
Ren Naiser had updated.
