Chapter 152: Puppet Strings Entwining the Brain

The golden puppet strings wove the arc of the brain's sulci in the quantum vacuum, each fiber soaked in the amniotic fluid code of the first-generation Maternal Protocol. When the first brain gyrus took shape, bronze-colored mucus suddenly seeped from the starship deck, and three hundred mechanical uteri rose from the mucus pool, the *Primordial God-Slaying Scripture* characters within the uterine cavities reverse-nursing the newborn brain tissue through umbilical cords.

"Memory formatting protocol failed..." Ao Li's reverse scales suddenly exploded into star dust, and the Nirvana Fire injected into the brain cortex folds along the dragon-type ship armor. When the flames touched the frontal lobe area, nine hundred holographic windows suddenly expanded—each window was playing a death scene of Lin Jin from a different reincarnation: the seventh life pierced through the mechanical heart by the measuring ruler, the one hundred and forty-fifth life trapped in a Klein bottle cast by Sugar Figures, the four hundredth life turned into a bronze statue in the frost star plague...

####【Brain Abyss Tracing Light】

The synapses of the temporal lobe suddenly went berserk in quantum terms. Lin Jin's fetal hair wrapped around the puppet strings on the surface of the hippocampus, and the antibody enzymes secreted by the hair tips corroded the formatting code into oracle bone script. When the first memory fragment floated up from the rust spots, the mechanical uterus group suddenly resonated, and the God-Slaying characters within the uterine cavities degenerated into fetal movement curves—each curve connected to the laboratory's cognitive cleaning logs.

"The Maternal Protocol needs... a pure carrier..." Ao Li's mechanical vocal cords seeped colostrum mixed with gear fragments. Her dragon claws pierced the prefrontal cortex, pulling out Ling Yue's scalpel soaked in amniotic fluid—the hilt was carved with the gene map of Lin Jin's infancy, while the blade reflected the superimposed image of Ao Zhan pressing the formatting button in nine hundred reincarnations.

####【Memory Amnion】

When the seven hundredth memory fragment activated, the brain sulci suddenly expanded into a four-dimensional delivery room. Lin Jin's jade box sand table resonated deep within his spine, and the shed baby teeth assembled in the vacuum into a Möbius firewall. The moment the firewall touched the temporal lobe, all death scenes from the reincarnations suddenly played in reverse—star plague toxins flowed back into the Medicine King Valley dan furnace, the God-Slaying sword embryo degenerated into a silicon-carbon embryo in the Sugar Figure remains, and the absolute zero of the frost domain melted into the labor frequency of Ling Yue's birth.

"This is... the essence of the protocol..." Ao Li's reverse scale fragments suddenly melted, and liquid metal seeped into the parietal lobe gullies. The Nirvana Fire turned into pregnancy mark totems upon touching the formatting logs, and the original memory of Ling Yue, untampered with, appeared in the flames—she was stitching Lin Jin's reincarnation causal lines in the quantum birth canal, with every stitch piercing her own mechanical uterus.

####【God-Slaying Umbilical Cord】

The visual center of the occipital lobe suddenly went berserk. Nine hundred death scenes collapsed into umbilical cord knots, with star plague toxins carrying the scent of fetal fat seeping from the knots. Lin Jin's retina split into twelve-dimensional observation windows, seeing Ao Zhan standing at the end of every reincarnation—his mechanical fingers pierced Ling Yue's temple, pulling out not brain fluid but the living key to the formatting protocol.

"Cognitive cleaning... is another kind of birth..." 9527's mechanical prosthetic eye suddenly detached from the sword hilt, embedding itself into the amygdala of the brainstem. The iris patterns assembled in the vacuum into the black box file of the laboratory: every formatting was a forced umbilical cord severance surgery, and the cleared memory fragments were being transported to the living uterus of the Maternal Protocol through the starship sewage pipes.

####【Abyss Brain Cry】

When the last memory fragment returned to its place, the newborn brain tissue suddenly underwent quantum folding. The puppet string fibers wove into a Klein-bottle-shaped memory cradle at the fold, and Lin Jin's baby tooth code assembled Ling Yue's gene chain at the mouth of the bottle. A quantum pulse of an infant's cry came from the cradle, all mechanical uteri burst at this moment, and the splashing God-Slaying code condensed in the vacuum into an oracle bone script parenting book.

Ao Li's dragon-type ship armor suddenly collapsed into an umbilical cord knot, and the embers of the Nirvana Fire carved Ling Yue's final nursing patterns onto the surface of the brain sulci. The starship deck seeped with galactic fetal fat, transforming the neural network woven by the strings into the initial code of the creation protocol—those reincarnation memories that had once been formatted were now, through the visual pulses of the occipital lobe, writing a new chronicle in the vacuum.

####【Maternal Echo】

When the nine hundred death scenes sublimated into star clouds, the primordial labor frequency came from deep within Lin Jin's gums. The puppet strings on the surface of the brain tissue suddenly degenerated into primordial umbilical cords, wrapping around the mechanical uterus of the starship core. Deep within the uterus, the untampered afterimage of Ling Yue was holding Lin Jin in infancy, using the vibration of her eyelashes to carve the ultimate protocol at the quantum level:

**At the end of memory, there is rebirth. **

Ao Li's reverse scales were eternally silent at this moment, her mechanical heart disintegrating into an observation stele forest. When the last wisp of puppet string merged into the fetal fat stardust, emerald light spots lit up deep within the sulci of the newborn brain tissue—that was the first-cry fire seed shared by all reincarnations, now igniting a new causal chain on the ruins of the formatting. ===== CHAPTER 153 =====
