Chapter 547: Awakening

What was a feeling? A wave of knowledge filled him and soon, Luo Yuan got the answer.

From a psychological perspective, feelings resulted from the strong mental reaction to external stimuli where actions were revealed unintentionally. Showing great concern for person or thing and emotions of love and hate was a unique way of expressing oneself to the objective reality. It was the human attitude towards an objective matter whether it fulfilled one's personal requirement.

On the other hand, from a biological perspective, it was a biofeedback where a person would choose situations that would give one an advantage, avoiding those which put one at a disadvantage. It was an electrochemical reaction where the secretion of hormones was taken into consideration.

However, no matter how well he could understand the definition of feelings, Luo Yuan found out that he could not feel it at all.

He had no feeling of dislike or hatred. Even now that the Glassian was coming, he felt nothing special about it and not even a tinge of emotion he had.

Aside from his urge to destroy, he had no other feelings. However, it was not a feeling of hatred but a person's instinct when the danger was near. It was like when a goat provoked a tiger the tiger would have a strong killing intent.

He could no longer feel the feeling of love, friendship, and family. He would feel bothered and it was a waste of time to him when his woman visited him. He was being impatient. He hated to interact with people, regardless of who the person was.

The conversation between them was only a few bytes per second. It was indeed hardly tolerable to Luo Yuan who could handle hundred million megabytes of messages.

However, as he thought of it repeatedly, he realized that nothing was wrong. Feeling was an unnecessary emotion and it could even be a burden to him who was seeking for improvement in his ability.

As his brain had a strong computational ability, he was being dominated by rationality and his way of thinking tended to be data-oriented. Thus, he would instinctively seek advantage while avoiding those which put him at a disadvantage.

Seeing Luo Yuan did not respond to her even after a long while, Wang Shishi stopped crying and looked at him. She looked disappointed, ”Brother Luo, is it that you have nothing to tell me? You really don't mind it, do you?”

As Luo Yuan recovered from his thoughts, he said as he started to get a little impatient, ”I think that's all. Huang Jiahui and the rest are stilling waiting for you, it's time to leave!”

Luo Yuan's coldness had caused Wang Shishi's heart to sink and she was chilled to the bone. She had fallen into despair and all of a sudden, she smiled wickedly, ”Brother Luo, am I pretty?”

”Of course, you are.” Luo Yuan could not understand why and just told her the fact. Despite the perfect humans were now all grown up, Wang Shishi was still the prettiest of them all.

Wang Shishi then took out a stripper clip. The stripper clip was emerald green and it had two sharp clips. It was jade green in color associated with a jade-like texture. It was a weapon that Luo Yuan gave her before the apocalypse which was also her favorite item. She grabbed the stripper clip in hand, looking pitiful and said, ”Do you still remember the first time we met? My parents aren't home and I'm alone. I was frightened and hungry. You're the one who gave me food. I'm so burdensome to you but still, you brought me to the Reconstruction Area. Without you, I'd have died.”

Nobody knew that when Wang Shishi was at the lowest point of her life, she met Luo Yuan. She was not even 14 years old at that time. Since then, Luo Yuan was everything to her. It grew from the feeling of respect to affection, it was the simplest yet most affectionate love.

When the rest of them had given up on Luo Yuan and were in despair, she still had the passion for him and at the same time, she was the one who could not accept Luo Yuan's coldness the most.

In Luo Yuan's mind, he had predicted what would happen next. However, he remained unaffected and still, seeing everything to happen.

”You're the one who saved my life. Therefore, I'm giving back to you now. I'd like to see would you still remain indifferent even after I die.”

Soon, Wang Shishi looked at Luo Yuan unwillingly and pierced the stripper clip through her temples.

The stripper clip was produced from the scaled horn of a high-level creature. It could easily penetrate through her temples. Her life was like firecrackers as it ended beautifully and quickly. The next moment, Wang Shishi's body trembled and fell to the ground.

Luo Yuan remained calm despite he had seen everything. He was not triggered and remained still. He did not stop Wang Shishi who died in front of her.

It seemed like he had lost touch with the world, watching everything to happen coldly from a third-person perspective.

However, he could not stop recalling the scene when she fell to the ground. Countless memories of him and Wang Shishi gushed into his mind.

She was innocent, passionate and being attached to him. Pieces of memories quickly flashed through his mind.

Eventually, sadness took hold in his mind. It was like a spark that was growing rapidly and soon, it occupied his mind. He was upset and unwilling to let her go.
