My Arknights Life Diary

Chapter 192 Confession

But.

Just as Tallulah raised her hand and was about to smash it down, one of Tu Fang's emergency avoidance functions was triggered again...

In just a moment, Tu Fang's body moved again.

He grabbed Tallulah's wrist with one hand, twisted it with his backhand, and then threw her over his shoulder.

Tallulah hadn't realized what was happening yet.

When she reacted, she found that her face was pressed tightly against the ground, her arms were controlled, and Tu Fang was pinning her to the ground in a standard grappling position.

"Tu Fang, are you serious?"

Tallulah shouted from the ground.

Because he was out of danger, Tu Fang regained control of his body and hurriedly released his control over Tallulah.

"Uh... Tallulah, listen to my explanation. It wasn't me who controlled your body just now! I didn't mean to do that! I'll help you up now."

Tallulah said this as she hurriedly walked towards the fallen Tallulah.

After being helped up by Tu Fang, Tallulah brushed off the dirt on her body and asked Tu Fang a question.

"You just said that the one controlling the body wasn't you? What's going on? Could it be that you've been parasitized by some old thing like I was before?"

Naturally, what Tu Fang just said reminded Tallulah of a certain immortal old Deng, so she asked this question with some concern.

She now has another guess about the reason why Tu Fang "came back to life". He might have reached a symbiosis with some kind of monster.

That moment just now was the other party's intention, and he was accidentally taken over by some monster.

Of course, the monster is just a guess. Tallulah thinks that the person in Tu Fang's body might be an old creature that is ready to take over Tu Fang's body at any time.

Just like her and Kosice.

"Um...how do you explain this?"

Tu Fang was speechless for a moment.

Only then did he realize that he had just accidentally let something important slip.

Nancy! What now? What should I say? Uh...or can I say it?

Tu Fang didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he asked Nancy in his mind.

You can say whatever you want. After all, the base does not require you to sign a confidentiality agreement. However, if you must give me a suggestion, I suggest that you introduce "emergency hedging" to it.

I understand, this is it!

In just a short while, Tu Fang had already thought about what to say next.

He was going to confess part of it.

After all, if nothing unexpected happens, given the relationship between me and Tallulah...

She'll know it sooner or later.

"Hmm... Tallulah, you should also be curious about how I survived, right?"

"Ah."

"Where do I start? Forget it, just take a look at this first."

As he said this, Tu Fang raised his right hand forward, and blood and flesh surged at his wrist.

A diamond-shaped, metal-like object appeared in front of the two.

"This is?"

Tallulah was a little curious. To be honest, when she saw the blood and flesh surging on Tu Fang's wrist, she was a little worried about him.

However, seeing that Tu Fang did not look uncomfortable, she did not ask.

"Hmm... an implant that acts like a second brain.

Tallulah, although my body now appears to be the same as before, it has actually been transformed a lot.

Of course, I did these transformations on my own initiative, and I was not forced to do them by someone, so you don’t have to worry! ”

Tu Fang noticed the change in Tallulah's expression halfway through his words, so he quickly began to explain.

"That's good, I thought......"

"You thought I was someone's experiment, didn't you? Some special human body modification, just like those inner guards?"

Before Tallulah could finish her words, Tu Fang rushed over to finish them.

"Ah."

Tallulah did not object.

Tallulah didn't ask Tu Fang too much about how he knew about the internal security.

She knew that the man in front of her was no ordinary person. She knew that he knew a lot of things, just like he knew that there was something about her.

"Let me continue to explain. You can understand the situation just now as the auxiliary consciousness in my so-called second brain playing a role.

After processing the information, it determined that I might be in danger, so it temporarily took over my body according to emergency regulations.

After that, if the danger was successfully resolved, I would regain control of my body, otherwise if he determined that the danger had not subsided.

For example, if there is a continuous flame, it will control my body until it is safe. Of course, I can take over by myself during this period.

It just happened so fast that I didn't react in time, so I let it push you to the ground."

Tu Fang started to explain. In a sense, he was telling the truth, but he complicated things that could be explained in one sentence...

"Is that so? If that's the case, then Tu Fang, you now have two consciousnesses in your body? Is this really okay?"

As a person who has experienced this (having been parasitized by a black snake before), Tallulah is still very worried about Tu Fang's mental state.

"Of course there's no problem. The auxiliary consciousness is strict, and in a sense it's similar to some AI, um...

You know AI, right? "

"I know. If I remember correctly, it should be a research project in Columbia. But if that's the case, Tu Fang...how did you get these?"

"Well... to put it simply, I inherited the legacy from my ancestors..."

"Ancestor's inheritance?"

The more Tallulah listened, the more confused she became.

"Well... Talulah, I actually want to confess something to you... For some reason, I have been hiding this matter..."

"Ok?"

Tallulah was curious.

"That's about my race... Well, strictly speaking, I'm actually different from you... I'm not the same as the 'human beings' broadly defined on this land..."

Tu Fang didn't know whether he should continue speaking at this point, because Nancy had just reminded him and it didn't suggest that he continue.

Tallulah saw Tu Fang's embarrassment, so she spoke up.

"Tu Fang, if this topic embarrasses you, you don't have to talk about it. I don't care about race or anything like that. It won't affect my relationship with you."

Even though Tu Fang heard what Tallulah said, he still wanted to say more. After all, Tallulah would know it sooner or later.

It is better to explain something now than to explain it in a panic later.

"Oh no! Forget it, Tallulah... I'll tell you this, the characteristics of this race are that their brains are well-developed but their physical fitness is poor and they are also insulated from magic.

Therefore, the civilization that developed was more technologically oriented. If we must make an analogy, Columbia, the most famous technological power in all of Terra, is not even close to it.

However, the civilization established by my ancestors later perished for some reasons. Now I accidentally entered the ruins left by my ancestors and inherited some things from them.

That's about all I can say. Sorry, Tallulah, there are some things I can't go into detail about."

"Yeah, it's okay. Like I said before, I don't care about these things."

Tallulah said so.

Tallulah knew that there were many loopholes in Tu Fang's words, but as she said, she didn't care.

"Thank you."

"You don't actually need to thank me."

"By the way, should we go back now? Everyone is waiting for us over there!"

"Well, let's go back!"

Tallulah looked at Tu Fang's back as he turned around, wondering what she was thinking.

She felt that the person in front of her was far more mysterious than she thought...

Forget it, why should I think so much! As long as the coating recipe in front of me is still the same, it’s enough!

Thinking this, Tallulah took a step forward and followed Tu Fang.
