"It seems there is still a problem. That device cannot remain half in your brain; it will have an effect. Let's start over." Rek raised the scalpel and once again cut the neck of the Moon Goddess lying on the Surgical Table.
The lifeless body of the Moon Goddess quickly disappeared, and her form was revived next to Rek once more.
"Quick, lie down on the Surgical Table; we need to begin the operation!" Rek urged the Moon Goddess.
"I just had a memory of you cutting my neck and killing me!" The Moon Goddess touched her neck and found no wounds.
"Don't think too much about it; time is tight."
The Moon Goddess donned her helmet again and lay down on the Surgical Table, receiving another injection from Rek with the Anesthetic Needle.
Time after time, Rek continuously performed craniotomies on the Moon Goddess.
It was at this moment that Rek realized why Hua Tuo and the Moon Goddess had said this surgery was dangerous; he had already performed twenty-eight craniotomies on her.
None had been successful. The used anesthetic syringes were strewn across the floor, and out of thirty-six Anesthetic Needles, only eight remained.
During these surgeries, the Moon Goddess died eighteen times on the operating table, while six times she managed to get off the Surgical Table alive but either foamed at the mouth or was unable to walk or speak.
After one surgery, the Moon Goddess went insane and attacked Rek.
Although three surgeries were technically successful with no adverse reactions, the Moon Goddess ended up losing part of her memory afterward, not knowing where she was or failing to recognize Rek.
To Rek, all of this reflected unsuccessful outcomes of the surgeries.
Rek continuously cut Moon Goddess's neck twenty-eight times. By the twenty-ninth time, Rek had become quite skilled, swiftly lifting Moon Goddess's skull.
Without needing to look at the auxiliary instruments beside him, he located the small bomb in Moon Goddess's brain, skillfully excising it and stitching up the wound.
This time, as Rek glanced at the instruments, they indicated that Moon Goddess's body was normal. He silently prayed, "Please don't let there be any adverse reactions later; I might run out of Anesthetic Needle."
Fortunately, after waiting for over an hour, Moon Goddess woke up again.
"Come on, Moon Goddess, let's get down and walk slowly," Rek said to her, observing her expression for any signs of discomfort.
"Yes, you successfully removed the hidden danger from my brain!" Moon Goddess responded.
Hearing that Moon Goddess could speak complete sentences made Rek feel relieved, but he continued to ask, "Do you know who I am? Tell me how we met and share some things that happened after we got to know each other. Also, where is this place?"
"Rek, why are you asking me such strange questions?" Moon Goddess said with a slight frown.
"Just tell me! I'm checking whether the surgery harmed your memory. Why are you frowning? Do you feel like there's a problem with your memory?"
"Should I cut your neck again? After killing you, I can bring you back and perform the surgery again." Rek picked up the scalpel, preparing to approach and cut Moon Goddess's neck.
"Don't! Don't kill me! My memory is fine; it's just that the effects of the anesthesia are still wearing off, and the wound hurts a bit."
"We met in Ancient Capital, at Hua Tuo Medical Center. Then I left with you and came to Dark Space---" Moon Goddess leaned back slightly, quickly answering Rek's questions.
After asking several more questions and finding that Moon Goddess could answer them correctly, Rek finally set down the scalpel.
"Congratulations, Moon Goddess! You have successfully removed the hidden danger from your brain. The lead surgeon for this operation is truly remarkable." Rek stepped forward and gave Moon Goddess a hug.
After hearing "Moon Goddess," she smiled at Rek, wanting to thank him for a moment. However, Moon Goddess glanced sideways at the twenty or so empty Anesthetic Needle tubes under the Surgical Table, and some memories began to surface.
"Rek, have you failed the surgery over twenty times, killing me over twenty times, before finally succeeding this time?
Fortunately, this mysterious space of yours has the ability to revive me. I told you long ago to familiarize yourself with the surgical process, but you actually used my body to practice!" Moon Goddess said angrily, raising her small fist and hitting Rek on the chest.
Rek chuckled and quickly kicked the empty syringes under the Surgical Table.
"I want to get back to the medical room quickly. After I return, I'll find an Advanced Healing Pod to lie in; that way, the scars left from the surgery on my head will disappear," Moon Goddess softly told Rek.
Rek looked at Moon Goddess and said, "I'm afraid that's not possible right now. There's a prerequisite for entering my space: any being brought in by me must copy a hundred thousand volumes of scriptures to be able to leave."
Rek pointed to the small table beside him and the scriptures that filled the entire Tower of Desire, explaining to Moon Goddess.
"What? Copy a hundred thousand volumes? How am I supposed to copy that many? Are you trying to kill me? If I die, what kind of deceptive Tower of Desire is this? How many years will it take me to copy a hundred thousand volumes?" Moon Goddess exclaimed in fury.
"If you choose to commit suicide, you will be revived again. However, this time, there will still be that hidden danger in your mind.
My surgery would have been in vain; I advise you not to commit suicide.
Moreover, even if you do commit suicide, you won't be able to leave without copying all one hundred thousand volumes of scriptures.
Let me teach you a method: you High-Fidelity Robots have some hidden abilities in your minds. Now that the hidden danger in your mind has been removed, you can freely manipulate that ability without restrictions.
Try to manifest the part of your brain that belongs to artificial intelligence to control your body to copy the scriptures while you can sleep," Rek said.
"I don't want to use the artificial intelligence abilities in my brain; I would never use them even if it meant death."
After leaving the Ancient Capital, I embarked on an adventure to remove the hidden dangers in my mind, all to become a pure human," the Moon Goddess said stubbornly as she sat down at the table and began copying from a scripture.
"Don't worry, I'll find you some thinner scriptures to copy.
Rest assured, time here is not the same as outside, and you won't feel hungry or thirsty. Even if you spend several years in my Tower of Desire, it will only be a moment outside," Rek comforted the Moon Goddess.
The Moon Goddess rolled her eyes at Rek.
Taking advantage of the Moon Goddess's distraction while she was copying the scriptures, Rek quietly left the Tower of Desire and teleported back to the operating room in the medical facility.
Before leaving, Rek instructed his clone remaining in the Tower of Desire to take good care of the Moon Goddess while she copied scriptures, to find her some thinner ones, and to chat with her so that she wouldn't go crazy after copying a hundred thousand books. Once she finished copying, he told the clone to open the doors of the Tower of Desire and let her out.
Rek certainly didn't have the patience to accompany the Moon Goddess in copying a hundred thousand volumes of scriptures.
Just a few seconds after Rek returned to the operating room, a golden door appeared before him again. The weary Moon Goddess stepped out from the Golden Door and quickly distanced herself from it.
The Golden Door vanished once more.
"This space is too dangerous! I'm exhausted; it feels like I copied for over a year before finishing. I never want to enter your Tower of Desire again or pick up a pen. Just seeing words makes me want to vomit," the Moon Goddess complained to Rek in an almost frantic tone after emerging.
Seeing that the Moon Goddess was still somewhat normal in her venting, Rek felt relieved.
