Level Up in Martial World

Chapter 258: Virus and Tampering

"What about me, young master?" Lu Qing asked with a smile on her face.

"You are already family to me; you, my younger sister, can ask for anything you like," Lu Zhen said with a smile.

Hearing these words, somehow Lu Qing felt disappointed.

"So what do you want to ask for?" Lu Zhen asked.

"Nothing, I will ask for it later," Lu Qing said as she huffed before leaving the room.

Lu Zhen shook his head in speechlessness. "What did this girl even expect?" he thought with a strange expression.

However, he just casually shrugged and looked at the spinning capsule instead.

"I hope it works," Lu Zhen thought with a sigh.

He took out a blue ball the size of a football and looked at it with a strange glint on his face.

This was his Level Up system, which was previously ejected from his body when he died.

When remembering that incident, a strange expression appeared on his face.

"Luckily, it looked like some higher being was really monitoring me," Lu Zhen thought with a sigh.

If he had really died at that time, Lu Zhen wouldn't know if he would reincarnate again since he had already offended the being who reincarnated him, so it was highly unlikely that it would happen.

Lu Zhen would die and become nothing, forgotten with time – that was a terrifying thought for himself.

This would have been his first time being so close to death that he was literally dead. He was basically betting his own death on his hunch.

However, the result was quite satisfactory as well.

He sighed as he let go of the intrusive thoughts that swirled in his mind.

He sent the instruction again, and the shining blue light enveloped the entire screen once more.

After the blue light settled, to Lu Zhen's disappointment, the red light had again decreased by half, but it was still there, gleaming in a blazing red glory.

"I don't believe that I can't eliminate these little things." Lu Zhen roared, and his fingers moved, breaking the sound barrier effortlessly as he entered the codes for cleansing.

Again, only half was eliminated, so Lu Zhen initiated the next cleansing round.

Again and again.

The room continued to flash with blinding blue light in quick succession before it finally stopped after an hour or so.

Lu Zhen's expression remained calm as he looked at the dim red light, barely visible to the naked eye, with his narrowed crimson gaze.

"It is still not completed?" he thought with a frown on his face.

Lu Zhen used the cleansing feature again; however, after the light died down, the small red light was still visible, showing no apparent depletion.

"Can I not remove this?" he thought with a deeper frown.

"Maybe the red light adapted to my cleansing. Let's try another method." Lu Zhen typed into the mobile in quick succession for another cleansing attempt.

His thoughts swirled in his mind as he critically considered another method.

The red light, just like a virus in a computer, could be directly deleted by instructing the device itself to clean it. Lu Zhen didn't even need the help of a prewritten program; he could do it himself with simple and easy steps.

A green light flashed in the entire room as he looked at the screen with anticipation.

Unfortunately, the last bit of red light seemed to be eternally stuck there, not even rippling in the green.

"What should I do then?" Lu Zhen thought with a frown on his face.

"The higher being wasn't the one who created these things. Instead, it must be another's creation. He just tampered with it on his own and put it in the capsule to make a farm which he could take at any time." This was the conclusion Lu Zhen could come up with.
