Chapter 760: She Is the Colossus's Brain

A brief, ghostlike silence.

Lynn, who had his eyes closed and was gently stroking the girl, was so engrossed that he didn’t notice anything wrong. Only when he subconsciously tried to move his left hand did he feel a strange detachment. In his mind it moved, but in reality the hand remained where it was.

How weird.

So he tried to move it again out of reflex.

It didn’t move.

He tried once more.

Still didn’t move.

Only then did Lynn open his eyes and look at the left hand resting on the girl (where it was placed was not something to describe). Just as he was about to figure out what was going on—

Slap—

He suddenly saw a big "╬" erupt across the back of his left hand.

Lynn was instantly shaken.

"Could it be…"

His left hand, which kept popping out countless "╬" marks, suddenly moved away. Fingers curled into a fist in an instant, and before he could brace himself, it let out a fierce, "Ah-da—" and a terrifying uppercut slammed into his chin.

Bang—

With a deafening crack, Lynn barely had time to react before his head snapped upward, spraying a fountain of old blood.

Jaw hit jaw, his head rang with confusion.

Only as the blood spattered did he finally realize what had happened.

Zuo Zuo…

That wicked little loli left hand of his—damn it, she had woken up!

What the hell did I just do?!

Although he hated to admit it, while doing that kind of thing he’d briefly forgotten that he still had a conscious, movable left hand. After all, when you’re getting intimate with a girl, thinking about other girls is extremely immoral!

This sudden turn of events also snapped the silver-haired girl awake. Her pupils dilated, and she instinctively placed her small hands over her chest, staring stiffly at Lynn, who had just punched himself away.

Before she could understand what had happened,

Lynn’s left hand screamed, grabbed his chest, and hauled the dizzy man upright. Frantic and aggrieved, it scolded:

"You… you despicable Stupid Brain!"

"I truly never expected it. The moment Zuo Zuo woke up, she saw you bullying another girl. That’s too much! And you made me touch another girl—absolutely… absolutely—"

"o(≧口≦)o You’re useless, super perverted!! Die!"

Zuo Zuo shrieked, claws flailing like a Facehugger as she scratched at Lynn’s face.

Hopeless!

What a garbage-filled brain!

Not worth holding on to at all!

For nothing did she try to get along with him—he immediately went off to do lewd things with another girl. That behavior was as despicable as visiting prostitutes while your mother is gravely ill!

"I’ll gut you! I’ll gut you!"

"Damn it! Zuo Zuo, why did you wake up now?! This is the worst timing!"

"Do I need to notify you when I wake up?! Your skyrocketing hormones were all over my face! Of course I knew you’d be bullying another girl (screams)!!"

"What do you mean 'bullying another girl'?! Don’t use being my hand to spout baseless accusations!"

"What do you mean 'baseless'! You almost went in—doesn’t that count as bullying?! (shouting louder)!"

"But you said 'almost'—that means you didn't! (*｀皿´*)ﾉ?!"

(ΩДΩ)!

Zuo Zuo never imagined he would say something so hateful.

An affront to the hand!

Fuming, she wrestled with him. If she didn’t teach this wicked brain a lesson today, she wouldn’t be herself!

For a while, in the darkness, Lynn and his left hand clashed with furious clicks and thuds, angrily fighting until the world seemed to spin.

Not far away,

the silver-haired girl who was the Colossus's Brain stood frozen, staring at the scene. Her gaze shifted constantly between the hand and Lynn, her eyes shimmering.

"Queen…"

She almost whispered the word before she realized it.

At that moment, the mental connection between them became clearer than ever.

A faint thread, as if it had existed since ancient times, reestablished itself.

Hearing that word, Zuo Zuo stiffened, halting her scratching of Lynn.

The sound seemed familiar.

Although the tone had changed—softer now—she remembered the pair of divine silver pupils in that mental space.

Could it be…

She slowly turned her hand and awkwardly looked at the girl sitting there, also looking at her.

A breeze rustled.

She watched the girl’s expression shift from dazed to lucid, then soften, becoming almost like a close friend’s, and she saw a cheek uncannily similar to the shape Zuo Zuo had mimicked.

"It is I, your King."

The girl said gently.

Buzz—

Zuo Zuo went hollow in an instant.

Her entire consciousness felt as if it had been thrown into a nuclear blast, rippling into countless waves until it was blank.

Because the moment their eyes met she recognized those pupils and immediately understood the vague link between them. She was an awareness born from the Colossus's Heart, and the owner of those silver pupils was the Colossus's first wielder—the one who once tried to take her out of Brain’s body—

a god.

Zuo Zuo stood petrified, her hand frozen like stone.

At first she had not sensed that connection; she only thought Stupid Brain was bullying a stranger, another puppet master, so she was furious.

But now,

her entire consciousness was in chaos!

No mistake!

That aura and that feeling were unmistakable—this girl had to be that terrifying Colossus's Brain!

But why was It here? Wasn’t It in severe conflict with Brain? Wasn’t It going to ascend and strike this hell? What was going on?

But that wasn’t the point!

The point was…

Why had It become a girl? And why was It getting intimate with Stupid Brain here?!

(ΩДΩ)!
