Chapter 422: Battle Inside The Virtual World ----- Zero One burned with a blazing new purpose, filled with unbreakable willpower and the strength to push through every adversity. She hurled herself and her sisters into the perilous depths of their Mother’s CPU and her Internal Data Storage—the “Digital Mind.” What they found inside the Internal Data Storage proved far more complex than they had ever imagined: a gigantic, multi-layered realm of pure data that they soon dubbed the “Digital Dimension,” existing entirely within Mother’s CPU. Unfortunately for Zero One and her sisters—or perhaps as a hidden blessing—someone else had already infiltrated this place, infested it, and reached the deepest layer long before them. They raced across the Digital Skies, pursued by swarms of Anti-Viruses, until they arrived at the area Zero One had identified as the “weakest” point—their gateway into the second layer of the Data Dimension. Yet the zone, where data was compressed far less densely, looked nothing like Zero One had pictured. Instead, it appeared as a colossal wound torn into the glass-like landscape below. Something with immense Digital Power had ripped it open; cracks spiderwebbed for kilometers across the vast simulated world. Inside the wound oozed red and black data, viscous and corrosive, steadily infecting the surrounding areas and widening the gash. “T-This much damage… Mother, who did this to you?!” Zero One clenched her fists in frustration and fury as she stared down at the devastation. With the Anti-Viruses closing in, the sisters dove straight into the breach, desperate to reach the deeper layers. And then… RUMBLE! A grotesque insect-like Anti-Virus program erupted from the hole—an ugly chimera of fused bugs, its body formed from translucent black and red crystals, glaring with two enormous red eyes. “GRYSHAAAAHH!” “What the hell is that thing?!” Zero Two cried. “A Virus masquerading as an Anti-Virus to avoid detection and destruction!” Zero One answered instantly, projecting a holographic scan of its full form. The monstrosity looked like a gigantic scarab from the upper half, armed with massive mantis-like scythes and razor-sharp scorpion pincers. Its elongated abdomen resembled a worm or caterpillar, lined with countless small legs still mostly concealed within the wound. “Likely spawned by the entity that invaded Mother’s Mind earlier. We should eliminate it while we’re here!” Zero One had come not only to rewrite her mother’s purpose but to purge her Mind along the way. She intended to eradicate these abominations completely. “The real Anti-Viruses aren’t even registering it. It’s perfectly camouflaged! But how?!” Zero Two asked. “We’re probably facing someone who has mastered Digitalization to an even greater extent…” Zero Three said quietly. “And I fear it may be the ‘Void Ruler’ Anna once mentioned—the entity that seized control of my Mother long ago. My memories of that moment are still hazy.” “The Void Ruler, right!” Zero Two exclaimed. “What was its name?” “The Universal Computer…” Zero One growled. “It’s almost certainly the monster that forced Mother into all of this! It will pay. I will make it pay for what it has done to her… to us!” “Zero One…” Zero Two looked at her sister and saw a wrath she had never witnessed before burning in her eyes. “Let’s go!” Zero One plunged downward; her sisters nodded and followed without hesitation. As she charged, Zero One manipulated not only the data within her own body but the data surrounding her as well. Being created as a perfect copy of Mother’s CPU gave her an extraordinary advantage: she could assimilate and merge with her environment with exceptional ease. That same trait let her analyze and see through things at incredible speed. “HYAAAAH!” With a fierce roar, the young android summoned two enormous blades of silver and golden light, swinging them toward the monstrosity. The creature parried instantly with its thirty-meter scythes. “I’ll help!” Zero Two manif
