Chapter 138

###

Mechanical centipede's Compound Eye Array suddenly burst with quantum sparks; its three‑thousand‑segment metal spine twisted in reverse into the curvature of a birth canal. When the cracked jawbone spewed indigo‑colored pus, fragments of the Measuring Ruler, entwined with the sweet‑foul smell of Star Ship Lubricant, burst forth—the god‑slaying runes remaining on the ruler's surface were melting, revealing, below, the tampered surveillance footage of Ling Yue: the moment her scalpel pierced her own temple and implanted the Taichu Seed crystal into her quantum brainstem, the footage was suddenly replaced by a holographic illusion of Ao Zhan wielding a knife and committing murder.

"Spacetime toxin......" Lín Jìn's fetal hair hardened into a probe; its tip, when it stabbed into the pus, burst forth milky‑white antibody sparks. His retina endured a visual bombardment of superimposed twelve dimensions—within each universe's surveillance footage, Ling Yue's mechanical uterus was connected to the centipede's quantum umbilical cord, while Ao's data knife, tampering with the log, was rewriting the gene chain of the Maternal Protocol into the living catalog of the 《Taichu Slaughter Classic》.

####【Ruler Abyss Tracing Light】

Fragments of the Measuring Ruler floated and sank in the pus; the crack in the ruler's body suddenly unfolded into a four‑dimensional observation window. Ao Li's Dragon‑Type Ship Armor inverse scales stood upright, and the Nirvana Fire flowed along the scale seams into the window frame, but the flames solidified into bronze‑colored amniotic fluid upon contacting the image—Young Ling Yue was bound to the operating table at the Star Core, mechanical tendrils sprouting from the fissure in her skull, sewing the Taichu Seed crystal into her pulsating brainstem.

"The crystal was undergoing reverse transfusion......" Lín Jìn's gums oozed Star Ship Lubricant. His fetal hair suddenly split into ninety‑thousand nerve strands, which stabbed into the gaps of the god‑slaying runes on the Measuring Ruler. When the tips touched the tampered data layer, the surveillance footage suddenly collapsed into an umbilical cord knot—Ao Zhan's mechanical finger was driving the Measuring Ruler into the surveillance probe, and the quantum brain fluid dripping from the ruler's tip condensed in the vacuum into a false image.

####【Tampered Image Chanfang】

The centipede's abdomen suddenly turned transparent, exposing the writhing data placenta within. Three hundred Ling Yue clones were struggling against the inner wall of the placenta, their temples pierced with 《Taichu Slaughter Classic》 conduits, and the ends of their umbilical cords were actually connected to the original server of the tampered log. Lín Jìn's umbilical blood suddenly boiled, condensing in the vacuum into a gene scalpel that stabbed into the placenta; the splattered amniotic pus actually carried Ao Zhan's brainwave frequency.

"Every frame is a living virus......" Ao Li's inverse scale suddenly underwent quantum collapse, its shards piercing the centipede's quantum umbilical cord. The Nirvana Fire turned into rust‑tinged colostrum, flushing the data placenta into oracle‑bone‑shaped mammary patterns. At that moment the storage core of the tampered log burst open, spewing not a data stream but nine hundred sealed truth embryos—each embryo curled up with the original recording of Ling Yue implanting the Taichu Seed.

####【Matricide Scar】

When the first embryo was activated by an antibody pulse, the fragments of the Measuring Ruler suddenly melted. Liquid metal re‑formed in the vacuum into a scalpel shape, and at the hilt appeared Ao Zhan's encrypted operation log—his mechanical finger was carving false images on the quantum layer, each stroke precisely scooping out the maternal love pulse from the moment Ling Yue implanted the crystal. Lín Jìn's fetal hair suddenly carbonized, the ash condensing into a gene key that jammed into the hilt's crack, forcibly releasing the imprisoned fire seed of the Maternal Protocol.

The centipede's compound eyes suddenly welled tears in unison. Quantum teardrops etched a ring‑shaped birth room onto the bridge deck, and the corpses of three hundred clones assembled on the inner wall of the birth room into a holographic statue of Ling Yue—her mechanical uterus's surface was etched with the markings of the 《Taichu Slaughter Classic》, while the Taichu Seed crystal pulsed deep within those grooves, transmuting the god‑slaying code into a colostrum pulse.

####【Umbilical Blood Revelation】

When Lín Jìn's umbilical blood touched the statue's uterus, all the tampered footage suddenly played in reverse. Ao Zhan's Measuring Ruler withdrew from the surveillance probe, and the false images peeled away like a snake's shed skin, revealing Ling Yue's trembling hands—her temple spewed quantum brain fluid, yet she still precisely embedded the Taichu Seed crystal into the Star Ship's molecular layer. At that moment the centipede's mechanical fangs burst, and the metal shards flying out assembled in the vacuum into an unencrypted fragment of the log:

**Experiment Log 0927: Maternal Protocol carrier Ling Yue voluntarily implanted the Taichu Seed crystal, initiating the Umbilical Severance Plan. **

Ao Li's Nirvana Fire suddenly purified. The bronze flames turned into a colostrum sheen, forging the centipede's quantum umbilical cord into a gene‑blue alloy. When the last chunk of tampered data was devoured by antibodies, the fragments of the Measuring Ruler sublimated into stardust, and within those dust grains floated Ling Yue's uncontaminated brainwave spectrum—those undulating curves were transmuting the god‑slaying code of all universes into the wail of a newborn civilization.
