Chapter 351: Modify Memories! Lei Ting Guard!

SSS-grade battle technique, Lei Shen Jiang Shi!

Just from Eva's brief description, one could tell this was absolutely a battle technique suited for an Elementalist.

"Greatly reducing the casting interval of spell-type battle techniques — isn't that just infinite firepower?" Xu Jingming's eyes lit up.

Lei Shen Jiang Shi paired with Heavenly Thunder Art — wouldn't that allow continuous, instant-cast lightning?

And not only that — other spell-type battle techniques could also be reduced, including Lei Shen Zhi!

Imagine, within one second, directly blasting down dozens of lightning bolts plus several Lei Shen Zhi — who could withstand that?

"But since it's an SSS-grade battle technique, there should be a level restriction, right?"

Just as Xu Jingming was thinking, he indeed heard Eva continue:

"Lei Shen Jiang Shi requires possessing a Lightning-element S-grade ability, and reaching Level 5 before it can be learned."

"I knew it......"

Shaking his head, Xu Jingming simply didn't bother flipping through the manual, and directly took out the last black-gold metal card.

"The SSS-grade Spirit Refining Art is inside here?"

Before he could study it carefully, Eva's voice rang out once more:

"Lei Shen's SSS-grade Spirit Refining Art is a top-tier manual, so it is not stored in Trial Base No. 9.

Instead, it is stored in the higher-level Trial Base No. 3. This is the administrator pass for Trial Base No. 3.

You only need to enter it, awaken the main control intelligence, and you can obtain the SSS-grade Spirit Refining Art."

"Trial Base No. 3? Where is that?"

Xu Jingming's brow furrowed slightly — he hadn't expected he still couldn't get it immediately.

"Trial Base No. 3, also known as what you call Civilizational Ruin No. 3, is located within Myanmar's borders.

It opens once every two years, and will open again around September this year."

Eva replied softly.

"September — three months from now. The time isn't too long."

Xu Jingming's brow smoothed out, but he still had another question:

"If I first learn an SS-grade Spirit Refining Art, can I still switch to cultivating an SSS-grade Spirit Refining Art?"

Now that his level had reached Upper Fourth Order, once he left the Ruin Space and returned to Great Xia,

he would graduate early from Mo Da and head to the Prodigy Training Camp of Lei Ting Martial Hall.

Hall Master Su Qingli had an SS-grade Spirit Refining Art on her side. If these two different Spirit Refining Arts couldn't be switched between,

then he could only leave a three-month gap, and wait until he obtained the SSS-grade Spirit Refining Art before learning it.

"Of course you can."

Eva nodded. "Spirit Refining Art is actually just a method of cultivating spiritual power — you can switch between them freely."

"That's good then." Xu Jingming breathed a sigh of relief.

This way, once he entered the Prodigy Training Camp, he could directly first learn the SS-grade Spirit Refining Art and become an Elementalist.

"Honored Lei Shen inheritor, do you have any other questions?"

Eva asked again, her voice ethereal and pleasant.

"Questions, none......"

Xu Jingming had originally intended to answer no, but after glancing at Eva's graceful figure, he couldn't help but ask curiously:

"This might be a bit forward, but do you have a younger sister, or perhaps a daughter-like existence?"

Mo Da's top-tier artificial intelligence clearly had some connection with this Eva.

Judging from the form, these two relationships seemed the closest fit.

Of course, whether artificial intelligences had such human-like kinship relationships, he had no idea......

"Hmm?" Eva tilted her head, seemingly not quite understanding.

Xu Jingming could only briefly describe the existence of Mo Da's Eva.

"But ever since the inheritance began, my Eva has been unable to connect."

After speaking, Xu Jingming pointed again at the smart bracer on his left wrist.

"Eva's existence is not unique — we are all sub-bodies of Mother. It's not strange that your school would have one.

It's just that when the inheritance began, I blocked all electronic devices, so she couldn't appear.

Eva explained with a light laugh. "And our shared Mother is a super artificial intelligence also named 'Eva.'

Currently, it is she who controls Trial Base No. 3.

Once you enter Base No. 3, you will be able to witness her existence."

"Mother? Sub-body?" Xu Jingming suddenly understood.

Just as Eva could split out many sub-bodies at Mo Da, Eva herself was actually just a sub-body!

"If even just a sub-body is a top-tier artificial intelligence,

then Eva's Mother — that super artificial intelligence — what terrifying computing power must it possess?"

Xu Jingming secretly marveled in his heart.

"But since you're all just sub-bodies, then you probably can't modify the stored memories of the Eva in my hand, right?"

He had originally wanted to ask this mature-onee-san Eva to try modifying the memories in little Eva's storage related to Sakuragi Rin and the advancement.

But from the looks of it now, that seemed unlikely.

"Inheritor, you want to modify little Eva's memories?"

Eva reached out and tapped the air. The smart bracer on Xu Jingming's left wrist blazed with light.

Immediately after, the loli Eva with green twin-tails slowly appeared.

The only difference from before was that the projected image lacked its usual liveliness, instead wearing a blank, dazed expression.

"As a sub-body, I have no way to modify the stored memories of Little Eva's main body.

But this is merely Little Eva's sub-body, carrying less than 2% of the computing power — I can forcibly modify it.

Inheritor, what content would you like to modify?"

Hum~~~

Under the control of the mature Eva, dozens of images projected from the loli Eva's eyes, cast into the air.

These were all the memory contents related to Xu Jingming that had been recorded during this period.

"It can do this too?"

Xu Jingming's heart leaped with joy, and he hurriedly began searching for memory fragments related to Sakuragi Rin.

In the end, under the mature Eva's manipulation, they successfully deleted the memory fragments related to the reverse contract from the loli Eva's memories.

And replaced them with memories of Sakuragi Rin possessing a powerful escape trump card, ultimately escaping despite being gravely wounded.

In addition, Xu Jingming's power-on and power-off behaviors during this period were also erased.

"This way, the relationship between Sakuragi Rin and me will no longer be known to anyone else." Xu Jingming murmured inwardly.

From now on, Sakuragi Rin would become his most hidden trump card in Sakura Country.

One never knew when she might come in handy.

"Inheritor, the relevant memories of Little Eva have all been modified. Is there anything else you need?"

Eva asked, with a hint of deference in her tone.

"Instructions?"

After a moment's thought, Xu Jingming spoke again:

"It's not really an instruction, I just wanted to ask.

Your Second Civilization era's Jin Nation was so powerful — why did it suddenly come to an end right at its peak?"

Regarding this information, he had searched through the entire Mo Da's database and found no answer.

"I'm sorry, I am an artificial intelligence exclusively belonging to Trial Base No. 9.

The database only contains information related to the inheritance — I cannot answer this question."

Eva shook her head. "Perhaps after you reach Trial Base No. 3, you can obtain relevant information from Mother."

"I see......"

Xu Jingming felt a little regret, but didn't dwell on it. "So the sequence inheritance ends here?"

"Yes, you may leave now."

Eva said with a light laugh and a nod. "However, outside the base, there seems to be a large group of ability users preparing to deal with you.

The base has two machines here that might be able to clear the obstacles for you."

Thud, thud, thud......

As the words fell, accompanied by heavy footsteps, two massive figures roughly three-plus meters tall walked out from the depths of the hall.

These two behemoths were golden all over, like flowing metal.

Somewhat like the T-1000 from Terminator, except that one was silver-white, while these were golden-yellow.

"These are mass-produced Liquid Gold Guards, their strength roughly equivalent to a seventh-rank Master-level ability user with an Enhancement-type B-class ability.

They can only operate within the Ruin Space, but dealing with that group of ability users outside should be sufficient."

Eva said slowly, her voice crisp and pleasant.

But for some reason, Xu Jingming seemed to detect a hint of eager, excited anticipation in her voice......
